Berroco Branchville is a knitting pattern for a fabulous women’s cardigan
using Ultra Wool Chunky. This is a relatively quick knit and an excellent addition
to your wardrobe as Branchville is worked from the bottom up in one piece to
the underarms in a simple stitch repeat. The sleeves are worked in the round
from the bottom up to the underarms, then added to the back and front for the yoke. The
yoke is then worked in one piece to the neck. Stitches for the button bands are
picked up and worked in a 1 by 2 rib pattern. The lace patterns are in chart
form only.
