Lavender Haze Sweater is an all-over cabled raglan sweater which is knit seamlessly in the round from the top down. Stitches are cast on for the neckline and the cable repeat is established. Three options for different neckline lengths are given. After the desired neckline length is reached, German Short Rows are worked before the raglan increases to create more fabric at the back of the neckline. Then, the cable pattern established in the neckline transitions seamlessly into wide raglan panels with increases on each side. When the intended body and sleeve circumferences are reached, the sweater is split for body and sleeves, and worked without body or sleeve decreases until the desired length. For sizes 1-6, the pattern includes a modification for a wider neckline and wider sleeves, which is described in the appendix. This modification is already incorporated into sizes 7-11.
