Who doesn’t love a man in a rugged fisherman’s sweater? He’ll look sharp in this modern interpretation of a traditional favorite. Masculine details like the traveling cables, textured panels, set-in sleeves, and a folded turtle neck all work well in a naturally sophisticated wool like this one.

Skills Needed
Knit/purl, cables, mattress stitch, picking up and knitting

Construction Notes
The front, back, and sleeves of are worked separately. The shoulders are joined, the sleeves are set in, and the sides are joined. The collar is picked up and worked.
