Willow Sweater is a softly textured cable sweater with a simple, yet highly decorative, allover leaf pattern
and ribbed edges. It is worked from the bottom up, both flat and in the round, using 1 strand of Heavy
Merino + 1 strand of Soft Silk Mohair held together throughout.
You start working the body in the round up to the armholes. Here, work is divided into front and back, and
each piece is finished separately back and forth. Sleeves are worked in the round before you graft them
onto the body using Kitchener stitch. Lastly, stitches are picked up for the neckband which is finished in
ribbing.
The cabled leaf pattern has written instructions only. If you would prefer to work the cables without a
cable needle, see Special Techniques for a video tutorial.
