TENNIS VEST AND CENTER-CABLE PULLOVER

Knit Simple Magazine Holiday 2013 #42 and #43

Design by Deborah Newton

These Doppelgängers feature two-color V necks and borders; the pull-over gets an extra punch from the cable that climbs up the center and around the neckline. Newer knitters can get the hang of the pattern by working the simpler vest version first, then tackling the cabled sweater when they’re more comfortable.
