Valley Yarns Parapet is a fabulous men’s sweater knit
in Berkshire Bulky. Parapet is a basic pullover full of cozy texture with
classic pieced construction. Squishy, lofty, and warm, its rugged good looks
are light but toasty. The pullover is knit flat from the bottom up and then
seamed together, making this a great first sweater project and a quick knit! Valley
Yarns Berkshire Bulky is a superbly soft wool and alpaca blend spun into a
single ply. The yarn works up to a sturdy fabric with a beautiful drape and
a subtle halo. Outerwear knit in Berkshire Bulky will keep you warm and cozy. The
box stitch pattern is in written form only.
