Mens Cable Knit Sweater Pattern

Things are really getting crazy around my house now that the Holiday Season is in full swing and I am sure the same is the case at your house. Make sure you set some time aside to knit whether it is something for you or for your loved ones 😉 Maybe a mens cable knit sweater pattern is in your near future…do I have your interest piqued? If you don’t have a particular pattern in mind I have one for you, the Cobalt Cables Mens Sweater by Marly Bird.

I simply love this piece. It is such a comfortable sweater that my model wanted to take it home with him. He said it fit his broad shoulders better than many store bought sweaters that he has in his closet.

Well, we all know that is because of the saddle shoulder construction; it allows for more room in the upper chest which is great for men. Also, the cables get to be highlighted at the shoulder with this type of construction.
