This is a simple cable half-zip sweater worked top-down. The back begins with slight shoulder shaping, then the front is knitted in two separate pieces to form the zipper opening. After that, the front and back are joined and the body is worked in the round. The sleeves are picked up and knitted in the round, and the neck collar is worked by picking up stitches, knitting it long, folding it in half, and sewing it down on the inside. The fit is a relaxed oversize; for reference, the XL size fits men’s 100–105 KR size well. A detailed written pattern and zipper-installation video tutorial are included.



* This pattern includes a tutorial video for selected steps.
