Cascade Jacket
Cascade Jacket is a slightly over size cardigan with a beautiful reverse-inspired collar. The yoke is knitted as repeating cables with increases that continues in
a simple pattern where the twisted knit stitches gradually fade out. The rest of the body is purl knitted with a simple twisted knit stitch for every 12 stitches. The edges are knitted as I-Cord along the way, adding a nice finish and good stability for the collar and front edge.
