Product Details

Valley Yarns Balsam is a cozy women’s cardigan perfect for warding off the chill on any cold winter day knit in Berkshire Bulky. The sweater has an oversized fit that is perfect for layering and gives you freedom of movement. It also features a collar, set-in pockets, drop-shoulder sleeves. Balsam is knit flat in one piece from the bottom up with a deep garter stitch hem and stockinette stitch body to the armholes. The sleeve stitches are picked up along the armhole edge and worked in the round to the cuff. Valley Yarns Berkshire Bulky is a single-ply of soft wool and alpaca that works up quickly.
