The Yeah Yeah Sweater is done in collaboration with the Yeah Yeah yarn and it might be the most wearable item I created until - it just looks gorgeous with jeans, skirts or dresses, the choice is yours!

Notes on construction
The cabled collar and shoulder part is knitted horizontally, then stitches are picked up below the selvage edge to knit the body in the round. The sleeve stitches are picked up from the “live” stitches on both sides of the collar and connected to knit in round. You will enjoy this piece while knitting it in literally all directions!
