I love knitting cables! And I’m practising some pattern writing skills while that Anthropologie - copy advances.

Don’t those cables look deliciously chunky?

As far as I can see the construction of this cardigan is fairly simple. I guess that the body is just a large rectangular piece with vertical holes for sleeves. Other pair of corners of that rectangle come to front center and the long side between them goes behind the neck. Another two corners form those neat tails to the sides. Very clever construction - few seams and nice trapeze silhouette! I swatched three different cable patterns for the cardigan and charted them, seems to me that they are pretty good match to the originals. Now I have advanced just past the sleeve holes and my first fitting seems to confirm my assumptions about the construction.

It got a name, too. It is Selma.
