With effortless style and a cozy tunic length, Valley Yarns Honeycrisp is a superb layer to add to your handmade wardrobe. Use Honeycrisp to throw on over leggings and tanks for Netflix nights or pair it with jeans and boots for a casual chic look. With a comfy drop-shoulder construction, mock turtleneck, and deep split hems, this pullover is destined to be your new favorite go-to! Honeycrisp is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up, joining above the hems to work the remainder of the body in the round to the underarms. The front and back are completed separately and joined at the shoulder with a three-needle bind-off before stitches for the sleeves and mock turtleneck are picked up and worked in the round to finish. The simple lines get a pop of flair from colorful Savoy, a yarn with a tweedy variegated look and soft feel that blends viscose with recycled wool, cashmere, and polyamide. Choose the colorway that calls your name and knit yourself a new casual superstar layer!
