Rock Sweater Pattern
Rock sweater is a seamless drop shoulder pullover knit bottom up in the round up to the armholes.
Front and Back are worked flat separately and then the shoulders are seamed together, using a three needle bind-off with the seam exposed for the decorative purposes.
The sleeve stitches are picked up from the armhole. The sleeves are knit in the round top-down in a simple stockinette stitch and finished with a 1x1 rib cuff.
A seemingly random scattered cable pattern creates the look of a textured patchwork. A classic Honeycomb stitch pattern is modified to create an uneven staircase effect.
