Errata: On Collar pickup, in the Collar section, there is an extra 32 in the brackets. Should look like this: 24 [26, 28, 32, 34, 35] sts

Pattern clarification: You will be joining in the round after you CO the 10 sts in the “Split for Sleeves” section.

Hat with matching cable here (adult sizes too).

The Abernathy Sweater is a top down unisex sweater done in a versatile dk weight. The shawl collar and cabled front add detail making it a special sweater, but not too fussy that it can’t be worn every day. The outer cables have two options: to twist inward towards the cable or to twist away from the center cable. Abernathy is a fun, engaging knit and perfect
for your little one.
