Valley Yarns Designer Series Baby
Brightling by Megan Jones is a cute baby drop sleeve cardigan with a cozy shawl
collar knit in Valley Superwash DK. The Brightling Baby sweater is a simple
knit and full of easy texture that will be adorable on the little darling in your
life. Cardigan fronts are worked separately from the bottom up, and the back is
worked from the top down. Stitches for the sleeves are picked up around the
armhole edges and knit down to the cuffs. Valley Yarns Valley Superwash DK is
made from 100% extra fine Merino, which makes it incredibly soft and an excellent
choice for both kids’ and adults’ projects. Valley Superwash DK is
machine-washable in cold water with a gentle detergent or Eucalan. The cable
patterns are in chart form only.
