Valley Yarns Designer Series presents Everlife, a lovely classic women’s sweater featuring a stunning diamond textured allover diamond cable pattern and contrasting color details. Dress this up with a pencil skirt for work or an evening out or dress this down with a pair of jeans. Everlife is sure to be a fall/winter wardrobe staple.
The sleeves and body are worked separately to the underarms, then joined for the yoke. The yoke is shaped with contiguous shaping by decreasing stitches for the sleeves and body. Valley Yarns Northampton is a workhorse yarn that you'll come back to time and time again. We sourced soft Peruvian wool and dyed it in a beautiful collection of solid colors and heathered shades. The lattice cable pattern is charted and written out.
