Cinnabar cables

Cinnabar Cables is a beautifully designed seamless scoop neck sweater that features a stunning circular yoke. Crafted in rounds from the top down, this cozy sweater begins with a small neck band in k1,p1 ribbing, providing both comfort and style. For the neckline shaping, this pattern employs German short rows, ensuring a flattering fit. The round yoke is intricately shaped using slanted increases, adding unique detail to the overall design. Once the yoke is completed, markers are set to distinguish the sleeve and body areas. After performing strategic increases for both the sleeves and body, you’ll seamlessly divide the sleeves from the body, at which point the eye-catching false cable pattern begins to take shape.
