Find your flow in a sweater that balances the engaging delight of twisting cables with the meditative comfort of stockinette in the round.

The Fig Sweater is a top-down construction design. You will begin by working the upper back, then pick up stitches to work front shoulders. After joining the shoulders and back to work in the round, the yoke is shaped using Raglan increases while working a cable pattern on the front. Since it is worked top-down, you can try it on as you go to adjust the length and fit to your preference.

The cable pattern is featured only on the center front, while the back and sleeves are worked in Stockinette stitch, making it comfortable to wear as an inner layer.
