I live upriver from a beautiful bend in the Columbia River that inspired the neckline for this sweater. This sweater is knitted from bottom up and in the round until the neckline. The eyelet mock cable stitch around the neck, sleeves and bottom gives the illusion of cables with more knitting ease. The neckline is finished with an I-cord cast-off for more stability and detail.

The hip/chest measurements are XS-30, S-34.5, M-39, L-43.5, XL-48, and XXL-51 inches.

Thank you to the awesome team of test knitters who brought this pattern to an entirely new level. This was my first time using a test knitting process and I couldn’t be more impressed with and grateful for the commitment and kindness of our Ravelry team: lee-bee, pearkitten, Revvelry, KiwiRob, matildasara, houndsmum, ceejay42 and Josialso.
