Muscadine

> ✽ Join my [newsletter][1] for 10% off your pattern purchase! ✽ Muscadine combines traditional **intricate cable motifs** with a **modern fit** and **minimalist** style to create a sweater worthy of becoming an heirloom piece. With its **cropped length** and **raglan** construction, it's perfect for pairing with high-waisted jeans or over a linen dress! The sweater is worked **top down**, with a **comfortable, relaxed fit** and slightly cropped length. The body is worked in stockinette, with sleeves featuring a winding cable motif running from atop each shoulder, down the sleeve, to the cuff. The 1 x 1 twisted rib edgings echo the twisted stitch within the cable motif. The collar is worked by picking up sts around the neckline to add stability over long-term use of the sweater, and folded over and sewn, creating a beautiful double thick collar. The cuffs and hem are finished with tubular bind-offs.
