Cabled Sweater

Lovely squashy thing. Acrylic yarn from Lion Brand- heartland in the color sequoia. Will knit in pieces. Maybe back, left front, right front, left arm, right arm, hood. Pick up edges for trim. Hoping it can be a workhorse. 

The thing is, I have a handful of gorgeous (store bought) wool sweaters but I live in fleece. Polyester fleece. It's extremely warm, cute, and when it's trashed after a year (they eventually stop getting clean in the washer) I get a new one. 

It's funny to work with textiles all day every day and then put on a store bought fleece over whatever I've made. Hoping this can bridge the gap and be an easy, effortless layer to grab.
