Brenton Point
This sweater combines two great and abiding loves of mine (and pretty much everyone in the Berroco design office): colorwork yokes and Berroco Remix Light. Worked from the bottom up, you get to save the fun part for the end, so if you find single-color stockinette in the round a little boring, the yoke can give you motivation to speed through those plain sections.
Remix Light is free of animal fibers, and is made from recycled fibers. It’s comfortable to wear in many climates, making it a great transition-season yarn.
I named the sweater Brenton Point for the site of the annual Newport Kite Festival. This would be the perfect thing to throw on for a breezy day by the water!
