NOTES
The body is worked in the round from the hem. Bubble stitch is worked continuously on each side of the charted cabled design. Waste yarn and locking markers are used to indicate pocket placement. Pockets are picked up from the waste yarn round and worked in Bubble stitch. Sleeves are worked in the round from the cuffs incorporating a faux elbow patch. They are sewn into the armholes after blocking. The collar is picked up and worked in the round, folded over, and sewn to the inside. The cable pattern is charted; work the Chart A for your size. Elements from the larger cable pattern are worked on the sleeves using Chart B.
Choose the size with 8-14” of ease.
