With an allover mesh stitch, Valley Yarns Sankoban is an on-trend pullover that’s easy to dress up or down. Pair it with leggings and a tank for a relaxing day at home or layer it over a buttondown and dress pants for the office, either way it will be comfortable and look put together! Sankoban is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and seamed to add structure to the airy, drapey fabric. Valley Yarns Whately blends baby alpaca and organic Pima cotton fibers into a heathered chainette yarn that has a lightweight feel with a great balance of softness and warmth. Choose your favorite shade of Whatley and cast on a versatile pullover that’ll bring you through three seasons plus with ease! Mesh lace pattern is both charted and written out.
