Knitting Pattern – Cable Knit Sweater｜ Sweatshirts & Knitwear

A timeless cable knit sweater with a beautifully textured front and back, set-in sleeves with a shaped sleeve cap — worked in a dreamy blend of Super Kid Mohair, Baby Alpaca, and Lurex for a lightweight yet warm finish with a subtle shimmer.

This pattern is written for a classic silhouette with 5-cable panels on the front and back, and 3-cable panels on the sleeves. The ribbed cuffs and hem are worked on smaller needles before switching to larger needles for the airy main fabric.

SIZE
This pattern is written for size M/L. For other sizes, stitch counts will need to be adjusted to fit your measurements. We recommend calculating your personal gauge swatch before starting and scaling the stitch numbers accordingly.
