The back is worked flat to the armholes, then the front to match. The body is then joined and worked in the round down to the ribbed hem, with ribbed arm and neckbands completing the look.

Romney is the right fibre for this design: its long staple and springy handle make cables stand proud and stay defined, where a softer wool would blur them. You will need 400g to 700g depending on size — 4 to 7 hanks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat techniques does it use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCables from a chart, working flat then joining to work in the round, picking up stitches along an armhole and neckline, double ribbing, a stretchy bind-off and a tubular Italian bind-off.
