If you dislike sewing together knitted pieces, this sweater is for you! It is worked in the round, starting at the bottom, and even the sleeves are worked in the round, so only the shoulder seams need to be sewn. The shaping for the sweater is done by using different stitches, so there is no need for measuring for increasing or decreasing. The main principle of the design is to let the cables shape the sweater, holding it tighter at the waist, then switch to stockinette (and a lighter color) for the bust.
