The Easy Cable Sweater is an elegant sweater worked from the top down in a simple cable pattern. It has wide raglan increases and edges in a double rib stitch that are integrated with the cables. This sweater is a great project for the knitter who would like to learn how to knit cables. The process of making cables is simplified in this pattern as they are only worked in the round.

I loved the pattern, it was easy to follow and super clear with the videos. I have knitted before but only easy patterns and no cables, but this was easy to follow and a really fun pattern. I definitely recommend it! :)
Virkelig god! Første gang jeg strikkede kabelstrik og det hele lykkedes og blev rigtig flot❣️
Very happy with the results! Easy too follow the pattern
I really enjoyed this pattern and it was so fulfilling seeing the cables form the more I worked the pattern. Didn’t do the decreases on the sleeves because I couldn’t figure out how to keep the cable pattern while decreasing my stitches but it still turned out amazing ! Has a bit of a bell sleeve too it. Would 100% knit again in different colours. I used a merino double knit wool so it’s so lush and warm for winter.
Super flot design, som jeg havde drømt om at strikke længe. Som (forholdsvist) ny strikker, var jeg positivt overrasket over, hvor simpelt det var at lave kablerne - det har helt sikkert givet mig mod på at kaste mig ud i mere strukturstrik og sværere teknikker.
