The Oh My sweater is not only “le knit” très chic, but it’s also a true knitters’ masterpiece
Level ●●●●○ (4 of 5)
How to work the knitwear: The sweater is adorned with sophisticated cables from the neckline to the hem, incorporating multiple techniques throughout the project.
After the raglan seams, the cables continue seamlessly under the arms, and the sleeve decreases are worked discreetly. The v-neckline is finished with a double-knit trim, giving the sweater a polished look.
The sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down. First, cast on stitches for the neck, then divide them for the fronts, back, and sleeves, and work the yoke according to the cable charts. Next, work the body to the hem and finish with ribbing. Then, work the sleeves. Finally, work the neckline band.

Size guide
The sweater is designed to be worn with approx. 0-10 cm / 0-4” of positive ease at bust - so it’s quite snug. First, measure your own bust (or your widest upper body part). Then, add 0-10 cm / 0-4” to your bust circumference. You can also measure your favourite sweater designed for a snug fit. Compare that number to the finished measurements (below) and choose the closest size.
