Mans Cable Sweater
Welcome to the ultimate knitting pattern for a stylish men's sweater featuring saddle shoulders and an eye-catching cable pattern panel. This design is crafted with men in mind, ensuring a comfortable fit that they will genuinely appreciate. As many knitters know, men can be particular about their garments, but I promise your loved ones will adore this sweater! In fact, my son loved it so much that he didn't want to take it off after showcasing it for me.
This sample has been knitted using a cozy mix of 50% wool and 50% acrylic, but for an even more luxurious feel, consider using pure wool for your project. The softness and warmth of wool will enhance the quality of this beautiful sweater, making it a fantastic addition to any man's wardrobe.
SIZES: This pattern is designed to fit chest sizes: 36-38” (90-95 cm), 40-42” (100-105 cm), 44-46” (110-115 cm), 48-50” (120-125 cm), and 52-54” (130-135 cm). For the yarn, gather 7[7:8:8:9] 100g balls of Wendy Mode Aran in the stunning shade of Vapour Blue—215. Each ball contains approximately 200m (218yds), and this yarn category is classified as Fisherman's or Medium weight in the USA.
If you choose to substitute different yarn, be sure to select the correct length to match the desired knit tension of 19 stitches and 24 rows to achieve a 10 cm square on 4.5mm needles (UK/Canada/Australia no. 7/US no. 7). This attention to detail will ensure your finished product fits perfectly and looks great.
Thank you for considering this pattern! Whether knitting for yourself or for a special man in your life, this sweater promises to be a cherished piece. Happy knitting!
