Product Details
Valley Yarns Larch is a warm and comfortable women’s
boxy pullover with a twist stitch pattern knit in Peru. The sweater has a
relaxed fit making it perfect for layering, and the striking diamond twist pattern
is combined with seed stitch edgings. Larch is knit flat in pieces from the
bottom up. The sleeve stitches are picked up along the armhole and worked in
the round to the cuffs. The neckband stitches are picked up along the neck edge
and worked in the round. Valley Yarns Peru is a spectacular blend of baby
alpaca, Merino wool, with a hint of nylon that works up beautifully. Peru has a
chainette construction that creates a warm, lightweight fabric with a gorgeous
drape. The diamond twisted stitch pattern is charted and written out.
