The Valley Yarns Alpine Kit includes the PDF pattern
download and the four colors of Hampden yarn needed to knit this casual
pullover.
Alpine has a great casual fit and feel with the added interest of stripes and a
contrasting color ridge stitch. This dropped shoulder sweater has a funnel neck
and long sleeves with additional coziness from the blend of alpaca, Merino
wool, and silk in Valley Yarns Hampden. This yarn has beautiful drape, amazing
warmth, and a slight sheen that add to both the feel and look of this pullover.
The front and back pieces are knit flat separately and joined at the shoulder
using a three-needle bind-off. Sleeve sts are picked up from the armhole edges
and worked in the round to the wrists. Turned hems on the body and sleeves give
a clean-lined finish and the funnel neck ensures that Alpine will be a sweater
you reach for often when you need extra warmth this winter.
