Cable Knit Cropped-ish Sweater

This sweater is a cream color with flecks of rainbow in it. It has some cable knit action going on (only on the front). The fabric is thin enough for layering but definitely enough to keep you warm. Fairly stretchy fabric (definitely not stiff). I understand the tag recommends a very specific wash cycle, but I've thrown in it with my other laundry and dried it with high heat and never experienced this sweater shrinking or any other problems.
