Cables and Os!
*cue music*
Design by Brooke Snow, from the Amy Singer book No Sheep for You. Yarn and needles by Knitpicks. Buttons by Mission Falls. Sleeve caps by Barbara Walker. Knitted by, and fitted to, me!
Knitpicks Cotlin, Key Lime colourway. Modifications: longer body, full length sleeves, buttonhole band and top-down sleeves.
I'm told that the sleeve method I've yoinked from cyberspace can be found in the Barbara Walker book Knitting from the Top and is called the Seamless Set-in Sleeve. Thanks to Becca for clarifying that for me.
And, just in time, Knitpicks has gone and expanded the colour selection in Cotlin to include some softer shades. I may just need another one for next winter. Somebody stop me!

Oh, I was rooting for this sweater all along.
YAY!

Beautiful!
Also, I just went to my Flickr and you'd commented on the yarn I made my Clapotis with--It's handspun from Louet's Northern Lights top. I think it's called Autumn Twilight. I picked it up at The Loop.

I've got this pattern & wasn't sure what yarn would work! I love how yours turned out! But i'll need another color as I've already got a kelly green cabled cardi.
