Patience is a large sweater with a raglan-type sleeve construction and a deep V-neck. A nice cable pattern runs all around the collar, underneath the sleeves and on both sides of the body.
It is knit seamlessly and top down with a fingering-weight yarn.
You will have 2 depth options for the V-neck: a classic one or a deeper one. As for the sleeves, you can opt between straight or fitted ones.
At the end of the raglan increases, the sleeves are placed on hold and are worked in the round after the body is done.
Instructions are both on charts and written row by row.
