Let's Twist Again Sweater Knitting Pattern (English)
Let’s Twist Again Sweater is worked from the top down with saddle shoulders and contiguous sleeves. First, the shoulder sections are worked back and forth featuring cables that continue down the sleeves. Next, stitches are picked up along each shoulder section. Short rows are used to create the sloping part of the saddle shoulder, while cables and increases are made toward the front neckline. At the base of the neckline, the front is joined. The stitches are set aside while stitches are picked up along the other side of each shoulder section to form the back. Stitches are cast on at the neck, and the upper back is worked back and forth with short rows and cables. The work is then joined across back, shoulder, front, and shoulder, and the body is worked in the round and finished with a twisted rib hem.
Stitches are picked up along the armhole opening, incorporating the saddle-shoulder section into the sleeve so the cable pattern can continue down the sleeve. The sleeve is shaped with decreases along the underside and finished with a twisted rib cuff. Finally, stitches are picked up along the neckline, which is worked in twisted rib, folded double, and attached on the wrong side.
