And other times, I design to fill a **need in my wardrobe**. This sweater, even though it looks basic, was inspired by a popular TV series. As soon as I saw Mabel, the main character, show up on episode 1 with a yellow, waffle texture pullover I just knew I needed to replicate it. You'd think that after so many years of knitting I would instantly know how to make such a stitch, but it actually look a bit of experimentation to come up with what I think is the perfect Mabel Sweater. **THIS IS NOT BRIOCHE! DON'T WORRY!** This pullover is knitted from the top-down in one piece. It has raglan sleeves and a subtle neck shaping. The neckband is picked up and knitted once the sweater is finished. The textured pattern is a mix of simple ribbing and Fisherman's Rib. **SIZES** 1 (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9). Shown in size 3 on a 35” (88 cm) bust.
