Texture has been very popular, and we can't ever seem to find enough projects for the "older" kids. There are very few patterns available for children ages 6-12, so when we saw this adorable cabled sweater from Knitsimple Magazine, we jumped all over it. This is a great advanced beginner project, and it"s knit quickly in one of our favorite yarns, Zara Plus by Filatura Di Crosa. This will be a fun challenge to get you through the winter that has finally arrived!

This pattern is from the Fall 2006 issue of Knitsimple Magazine . The pattern is available with purchase of the project.
