Back Panel:

  1. Cast on the desired number of stitches for the back panel based on your bust measurement. (For example, cast on 90 stitches for a bust measurement of 36 inches and a gauge of 5 stitches per inch.)
  2. Knit in stockinette stitch until the back panel measures the desired length from the base of the neck to the waist.

Front Panels:

  1. Cast on the same number of stitches as the back panel.
  2. Knit in stockinette stitch until the front panels match the length of the back panel.
  3. On the next row (right side), place markers at the center of each panel to indicate the placement of the cable pattern.
  4. Continue knitting in stockinette stitch, working the cable pattern between the markers on the right side rows.
  5. Repeat the cable pattern every few rows or as desired, ensuring that the pattern is symmetrical on both front panels.
  6. Continue knitting until the front panels match the length of the back panel.

Sleeves (make 2):

  1. Cast on the desired number of stitches for the sleeves based on your arm circumference.
  2. Knit in stockinette stitch, working any desired pattern or texture if desired.
  3. Increase 1 stitch at each end of every 8th row until the sleeve reaches the desired length.
  4. Continue knitting without increases until the sleeve matches the length of the back panel.
  5. Bind off all stitches.

Assembly:

  1. Seam the shoulders together using a mattress stitch or the desired seaming method.
  2. Seam the sides of the front and back panels together.
  3. Seam the sleeves to the body, aligning the top of the sleeve with the shoulder seam.
  4. Weave in any loose ends.
