Overland Trail Cabled Knit Sweater Pattern PDF

🧶 Overland Trail Cabled Knit Sweater The Overland Trail Cabled Knit Sweater is a fully refreshed, unisex boyfriend-fit pullover with saddle-shoulder construction and a cabled panel that runs right over the shoulder line. It's an intermediate knit that rewards the extra attention with a sweater you'll genuinely want to live in. ✨ Features Saddle-shoulder construction for a clean, traditional fit Relaxed, unisex boyfriend styling with generous positive ease Eight sizes: S, M, L, XL, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X Written instructions and charts included Tip, trick, and technique videos for tricky spots Built-in "Big and Tall" length customization option 🧵 How It's Made The Back, Front, and Sleeves are each worked flat, separately, from the bottom up, starting in 2x2 ribbing before moving into the seed stitch and cable pattern. On the sleeves, stitches are bound off on either side of the center cable panel, which continues on as the shoulder saddle. Once the pieces are finished, the saddles are sewn into the shoulders, the sleeves are set into the armholes, side and sleeve seams are stitched up, and stitches are picked up around the neckline for a knit-in-the-round 2x2 ribbed trim. 💖 Why You'll Love It This is the sweater you reach for on repeat... roomy enough to layer, textured enough to feel special, and easy enough to wear that it becomes a daily go-to instead of a special occasion only piece. 📏 Sizing Sizes S through 5X are included, with finished chest circumferences from 42½" up to 66½" and lengths from 26½" to 30". The sample is shown in size XL with 4–6" of positive ease for that relaxed boyfriend look. With this range, it's an easy pick for gifting to a partner, knitting alongside a family member who wears a different size, or building a matching set. 🧶 Yarn + Materials Made with Tahki Yarns Donegal Tweed Homespun, a 100% pure new wool in worsted weight (183 yds / 167m per 3.5oz / 100g skein).
