Excellent pattern, love the outcome!! Nice thoughtful details for fit and finishing of the cables/double moss stitch going in to the ribbing at hem and cuffs.

Yarns held together to make gauge and am really loving the slight marling of the green and blue together especially as the Lanas is a heathered yarn with hints of blue too.

MODS:

  • When picking up front panels, adjusted the picked up stitches to meld the front cables in from the back cables and then immediately cabled the stitches back into the original chart pattern in the first row. This was with Andrea’s permission and was only to satisfy my own sense of symmetry. This was absolutely not necessary as it works great as written!

  • Knit the body approximately 1.5”/4cm shorter than pattern to hit my natural waist and knit the hem ribbing longer to compensate
