Adding embroidery to a sweater is wonderful, and embroidering over cables with contrast colours creates such a striking look! The Valeria Sweater combines tiny cables and zig zag stitches with embroidery - it’s a really fabulous project to make! Knitted flat and seamed in Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino, which comes in a huge range of shades!
