About

This sweater top is covered in gorgeous vertical
cables, not just on the body but running up each
sleeve as well. The cables are simple but repetitive
for visual interest. This design includes thoughtful
shaping at the shoulders and set-in sleeves.

The name comes from the idea that cabled
sweaters like this cannot be made from crochet -
and yet, here it is! A stunning sweater with “fabled”
crochet cables.
