Keepsake Pullover by Evelyn Siatra

This classically designed and knit sweater has a wonderful cozy oversized fit. The Keepsake Pullover is worked in an all over cable pattern, with ribbing that flows gracefully into these cables, and features side slits for comfort and wearability, making it a timeless staple in any wardrobe. It features a crew neck worked in double ribbing, and the garment is worked from the bottom-up in pieces and then sewn together. You’ll wear this sweater for many years and it’s truly an heirloom in the making!

Notes
-The back, front, and sleeves are worked flat from the bottom up and sewn together. Stitches are picked up and knit around neckline, and then the neckband is worked in double ribbing in the round.
-Some shaping occurs at the same time. Read each section thoroughly before proceeding.
-During shaping, if there are not enough stitches to work a complete cable, work remaining stitches in Stocking stitch, or Reverse stocking stitch, to keep pattern correct.
