8254 Sweaters by Hayfield

Craft: Knitting

Designed for the #10084 Hayfield Spirit Chunky brochure by Sirdar, the “Shawl Collar Cardigan” features cabled columns at the front and back, a shallow 1x1 ribbed shawl collar around the v neck, and matching 1x1 ribbed cuffs at the set in sleeves and hem. Worked in pieces then seamed, the cabled columns create a slimming effect on the garment’s straight body. Please note that a chart and written instructions are included for the cabled stitch pattern.
