Hachi
Hachi features cable lines inspired by the Japanese kanji character ‘八’ (eight).
It is first worked in the round, then the front and back are worked flat separately to the underarm.
They are then joined again and worked in the round for the remainder of the body.
Each sleeve is picked up from the armhole and worked in the round.
