Valley Yarns Designer Series presents Northland Vest, a women’s
sweater with a timeless style with a modern twist knit in Whately. This
lovely vest is perfect to go from home to the office to dinner out. Northland Vest
is knit in the round from the bottom up. A narrow band of stranded Colorwork is
worked just above the rib, and another wider band of stranded colorwork begins before dividing the front and back. Valley Yarns Whately is sumptuous naturally
heathered due to a blend of baby alpaca and cotton, creating a lightweight
warmth that will ward off the chill. The colorwork patterns are in
chart form only.
