Sweater with Collar, Curved Cables & Button Fastening

A classic shaped sweater with a distinct curved cable to flatter. The simple 4 stitch cables make a frame at each side of a 6 stitch reverse stocking stitch panel. The sleeves are worked in reverse stocking stitch and the cute little moss stitch collar is worked in one with the shallow neckband. If you prefer not to work the collar, that’s easy to alter - instead of working just 3 rows of garter stitch, work 4 or 6 instead and then cast off evenly knitways.
