Serene Sweater

Sizes: XS (S) M/L (XL/2XL) 3XL ● Level: 3/5 ● The Serene sweater features a beautifully mesmerising cable pattern that invites calmness to my being. The motif is like a mantra—once learned, there’s no need to keep checking the chart. The sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down. First, cast on stitches for the back neck and work them flat to the underarm. Then, pick up the stitches for both fronts, join them, and work the front in the same way as the back. Join the work in the round and work to the hem. Next, work the sleeves. Finally, work the collar as desired. * FINISHED MEASUREMENTS Bust circumference: 90 (105) 120 (135) 150 cm / 36 (42) 48 (54) 60” Length from back neckline to hem: 61 (61) 61 (64) 64 cm /
