As usual. I find a pattern where the yarn has been discontinued.
So I used Sublime Baby Cashmere Merino Silk DK in the 'Skipper' colour.
Row markers are absolutely key to this pattern, as the cable is non standard with 8rows to the pattern repeat, but the increase/decrease stitches are done on every 6th row.
Also knowing that Panel A is first panel on a Purl row AND that Panel B is the first panel on a Knit row is a great help - I marked the pattern for this.
I have extended the rib to double the length on the sleeves and I am going to press the rib flat, in line with the body, as I want a 'boxy', very loose fitting effect.
As I also wanted to wear with scarves, I changed the neck from a rib cowl, to a narrow roll.
