The Staghorn Cable Cardigan is a relaxed fit sweater knitted in worsted weight yarn for cooler weather. The modified dropped shoulder style has deep armholes roomy enough for layering over a turtleneck or tee. Two focal buttons provide closure on garter stitch front bands. The classic staghorn cables shape the body and sleeve cuffs with bold visual impact in front and back.

Cable stitch pattern instructions are provided in both written and chart form.

Both stitch and row gauge are important for this cable pattern. Save time by knitting and blocking a swatch at least 4” square.

Yarns: Wool, alpaca, or similar fibers or blends
