CAVA sweater, with low or high neck - knitted in Cloud. An easy-knit sweater knitted on thick needles where there is minimal assembly. The bubble pattern at the bottom of the sleeves gives the sweater a nice distinctive look. The body is knitted in the round up to the decrease for the sleeves. The front and back are knitted back and forth. The sleeves are knitted from the top down. We think it is good not to have to sew the sleeves in afterwards, and like that the length of the sleeves can be easily adjusted to the desired length. All the ribs are knitted with a twisted knit (the stitch is knitted in the back loop) and a purl.
