Seelbach
I love the flowy, gentle lines in here and the distinct edges each panel creates. The texture is unique, but the cables themselves are easily memorized and much simpler than they appear. Sleeves are worked in stockinette, keeping all the attention on the body. Along each edge of the front and back, side stitches and rib detail make for beautiful shoulders and also create an easy spot for adjusting width if needed.
Seelbach is knit from the bottom up in 2 pieces (front and back). Once the two pieces are seamed together at sides and shoulders, sleeve stitches are picked up and worked to cuff in the round. Then the collar stitches are also picked up and worked in the round to finish the sweater.
