The Graubünden (or Graubuenden) Sweater is a cabled sweater worked seamlessly from top to bottom with a yoke. The sweater is worked entirely in the round.

The sweater is knitted using Gazzal Baby Wool XL, an aran yarn, resulting in a soft and chunky garment.

All charts for the yoke, body, and sleeves are provided to guide you through the pattern and a transcription is also included.

The Graubünden Sweater is designed to include positive ease in the bust area, approximately 15–20 cm (6”–8”) for each size. For example, if your bust measures 94 cm (37”), you should choose size M (circumference of 114 cm / 44.8”), which provides a positive ease of 20 cm (7.5”).
