Cable Column Sweater Knitting Pattern

Knit Cable Columns Without a Cable Needle

You want a sweater with real texture, but cables feel like one more thing to juggle.
Here, every cable is a simple two-stitch twist worked right off your needles, with no extra tools.

       

Once the yoke is set up, the body is just two rounds on repeat. You'll always know where you are, and the columns build up fast.

Skill Level: Intermediate
Finished Size: 5 sizes to fit bust 75 to 150 cm (107 to 173 cm finished chest)

• The body is joined and worked in the round, and the sleeves are picked up from the armhole, so you finish with a sweater instead of a pile of pieces.
• There are try-on points for the body and the sleeves, so you can add length before you start the ribbing.
• Clear ease guidance (20 to 35 cm) takes the guessing out of picking a size, and the folded neckband and Italian bind-off give every edge a neat, finished look.

           "The twists felt natural after a few rounds. It's cozy, roomy, and I wear it constantly."
