Hourglass
Pullover
Twisted rib produces sheer fabric, and a large cable makes a bold fabric. This sheer and bold combination makes this a sleek pullover. The body and sleeves are a little flared even though you knit it without any shaping because cables pull the fabric in. The flared shape adds an elegant look.
☆ The pattern includes the following adjustments/options to make your own style:
