Valley Yarns 1133 Bedford PDF

Valley
Yarns Bedford is a women’s longline cardigan knit in Becket. The sweater
features a ribbed collar, pleasing A-line shaping, and useful pockets to keep
your hands warm. The cardigan is knit flat in one piece from the bottom up to
the armholes. The body is then divided for the back and the fronts and then seamed. The
sleeves are picked up around the armhole edge and worked in the round down to
the cuffs. Becket is a scrumptious blend of superfine alpaca and wool that has
us all ready to put it to work. Gently heathered colors give your sweaters and
shawls a rich feel, while the alpaca creates next-to-skin softness you’ll love.
