Light Trails

This stunning oversized sweater seamlessly brings together three of my favorite elements: vanishing cables, an oversized fit, and a lightweight fabric. The combination of these features creates a modern and stylish garment that showcases an eye-catching cable detail, making it a must-have addition to your wardrobe.

The unique cable pattern is designed to be contiguous, starting from the shoulder and elegantly continuing down the sleeve before vanishing into the body. This sophisticated sweater is crafted seamlessly from the top down, with the upper body worked back and forth, while the remainder of the garment is completed in the round. For your convenience, the cable pattern includes both charts and clear written instructions, ensuring that you can follow along with ease. Additionally, the pattern features a detailed construction schematic to guide you through the process.

This garment offers a generous amount of positive ease, providing a comfortable and relaxed fit. When selecting your size, I recommend choosing one that is approximately 12 inches / 30.5 cm larger than your actual bust measurement for the perfect oversized look. The sample size featured in the description measures 44 inches / 112 cm.

It's important to note the gauge for this pattern: you will need 23 stitches and 32 rounds in stockinette stitch using larger needles to achieve a measurement of 4 inches / 10 cm after blocking. To ensure the best fit, please take the time to wash and block your swatch before starting your project. My pre-blocked gauge measured 25 stitches and 35 rounds per 4 inches / 10 cm, so adjustments may be necessary to achieve the desired outcome.

Embrace your creativity and elevate your knitting game with this beautifully designed sweater pattern, perfect for both novice and experienced knitters alike. Happy knitting!
