Description:
This cabled sweater vest is made in the cropped style with medium weight yarn (DK weight). The pattern also includes instructions to make a full pullover sweater with balloon or puff sleeves. If a full length sweater or vest is preferred to the cropped version, a couple of pattern repeats can be easily added to sweater length (notes in pattern). The pattern includes three sweater sizes: women’s small, women’s medium, and women’s large. The pattern also includes a stitch diagram for the cable pattern and video tutorials of select cable stitches used (links below).
