This high-neck, classic collar is knitted from the top down, with short rows and increases knitted simultaneously on the yoke.
The elegant cable pattern is derived from the pattern in the Blushed Sweater, and is knitted on both the front and the back. 

First, the turtleneck is knitted in the round in 2×2 rib. Afterwards, the yoke is knitted in the round with a circular needle, before the shoulder stitches are cast off and the work is divided into the front and back sections. Each section is knitted according to a diagram, worked back and forth separately before ribbing is worked and all the stitches are cast off.
