Cables mixed with such a gorgeous texture? Sign me up! I love this variation on a moss stitch all over the garment but the cable panel really makes it stable out, and it's so satisfying how the ends of each cable lean into the ribbing. This will definitely keep you interested as you knit it and it won't take too long to make, either.

This has been written up in King Cole Comfort Chunky. Big Value Chunky has a wider range of colours but if you'd like something self patterning, the Riot Chunky has some great bright shades perfect for kids.

You'll need 5mm and 6mm needles, a cable needle, stitch holders for the jumper and between five and seven buttons for the cardigan depending on the size you're making.
