KNITTING PATTERN -- Niven Cable Sweater and Hat - P232
This squishy cozy cable sweater is a must for those cold winter days. Pattern is designed with a shoulder opening making it easy to slip over babies/toddlers head, and comes with 2 versions, knitted flat, so seaming is required. Second version, the body is knitted in the round, so less seaming involved. Hat is knitted in the round.
