classic cable sweater knit - merlot .5 yds

This cable sweater knit is classic, beautiful and easy care! The color is a gorgeous merlot with some lighter and darker very fine yarns knitted through to give it a slightly tweedy look (PANTONE 19-1623). It is a medium-light weight sweater knit with a soft drape, and lots of dimension and texture. With about 80% widthwise stretch, it has great springback due to rows of black elastic yarns woven through the back of the knit. The cables run lengthwise and the horizontal repeat is 2.875". This beauty is perfect for cardigans, pullovers, a tunic, scarf, etc. The knit is very slightly open in some areas so some styles may need lining or layering. Machine wash in cool water, gentle cycle, lay flat to dry (please test first). .5 yds.
