Valley Yarns Designer Series presents Baharat with cable and lace along with modern shaping to make a fabulous contemporary women’s pullover using Berkshire. It is knit from the top down with a distinctive yoke structure that enables the sleeves to grow out of the cable and lace pattern. Valley Yarns Berkshire is a superbly soft wool and alpaca blend made of a single-ply. Berkshire works up to a sturdy fabric with beautiful drape and a subtle halo. The cable and lace patterns are charted and written out.
