Tracks in the Snow Slipover

Tracks in the Snow is a cable slipover knit in sport-weight yarn in the round from the bottom up. The cable pattern reminds me of cross country skiing when you have to climb a hill on the trail. The blue slipover is the fourth size, 40 in, on a 34 in bust. The cream color is the 3rd size, 37 in, on a 34 in bust. The center cable pattern is derived from the Chevron Share Tight pattern in the Knitted Cable Sourcebook by Norah Gaughan. The main cable becomes larger as the finished sizes become larger. Smaller twisted rope cables flank the main cable. Reverse stockinette stitch is used on the side of the slipover and a knit below stitch is used for a faux side seam and as an accent around the cable patterns. Take note of the finished sizes and choose a size that is 3-4 inches/7.5-10 centimeters larger than your bust size. **Skill Level** Intermediate **Sizes** 1 (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10) **Finished Sizes** **Bust** 33 (35, 37, 40, 43, 46, 49, 54, 58, 64) in/84 (89, 94, 101.5, 109, 117, 124.5, 137, 147.5, 162.5) cm **Length** 20.5 (20.5, 20.5, 20.75, 21, 21, 21.5, 21.5, 21.5, 21.5) in/52 (52, 52, 52.75, 53.5, 53.5, 54.5, 54.5, 54.5, 54.5) cm **Materials** 5 (5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10) skeins of Cascade 220 Sport, 100% Peruvian Highland Wool, 50 g/1.75 oz, 164 yds/150 m, color 8010 Natural or 1086 Skywriting Size 4 US/3.5 mm 32 in/80 cm circular needle Size 4 US/3.5 mm 16 in/40 cm circular needle Cable needle Stitch markers Tapestry needle **Gauge** 19 sts & 23 rounds = 4 in/10 cm in stockinette stitch 37.5 sts & 23 rounds = 4 in/10 cm in main cable pattern 28 sts & 23 rounds = 4 in/10 cm in side cable patterns
