Amity Sweater, Vest and Tunic - English

Amity Sweater, Vest and Tunic is my interpretation of the classic cable and texture aran patterns. The pattern can be knit with 3 different patterns across the front and back. All the patterns has an XO cable down the middle. The patterne is worked top down with raglan increases on both sides of a raglan rib. At first the work is worked back and forth to create a button opening in the yoke. Then the rest is worked in the round.
