Riverlands
Bold, squishy, and impactful yet delightfully simple to knit. A truly classic cabled pullover, Riverlands has been designed for maximum textural impact while still being a very simple and enjoyable knit. Riverlands pairs a simple shape with repeats of the same cable and double moss stitch to create the perfect pattern for the knitter who wants a timeless cabled pullover without the fuss of multiple pages of charts to follow. The modified drop shoulder construction is paired with a simple crew neck for a classic look without complicated shaping. Slim-fitting stockinette sleeves balance the heavily-textured body, and the folded cuffs mirror the folded neckline. Instructions are given for both a split and a traditional, non-split hem.
