Cabled V Neck Fitted Sweater
Discover the perfect blend of vintage charm and modern style with this beautifully shaped sweater pattern, designed to flatter every figure! This charming garment features an array of classic stitches, including stocking stitch, single rib, and plaited cables, making it a delightful project for knitters of all skill levels. A delicate garter stitch edge frames the elegant cable neckline, adding a touch of sophistication.

This exquisite design also features stylish 3/4 length sleeves, making it a versatile addition to your wardrobe.
