My chunky knit aran sweater is finished!

From my experience of designing cable knits, I’ve learned that there are only several basic cable stitches, but it is the mixture and the balance of the different patterns that is the key to beautiful and interesting textured knits. This is also in line with my design philosophy: to make something beautiful doesn’t have to be complicated, and here’s the perfect example. 

Despise the chunkiness and the intricate cables, the sweater feels light but warm, thanks to the wonderful Aran fleck yarn from Red Heart. It was so easy and quick to work with, and it really makes the textured pattern stand out. Very happy with the result :) 

Interested in the knitting pattern? Let me know!
