Wolfeboro from the Valley Yarns Designer Series is a cozy, longline cardigan with a clean, open front framed by a gorgeous mosaic collar. Wolfeboro is worked from the top down with stitches for the fronts picked up from the back once it’s been worked down to the underarm. There the fronts and back join to work the body in one piece before picking up stitches for the bold front band. The mosaic patterned band is doubled to have a finished inside that reverses the color patterning of the outside for a thoughtful and extra cozy detail. Sleeve stitches are picked up around the armhole edges and worked flat to match the underarm cast-ons before joining to work in the round to the cuff. Merino wool Amherst yarn ensures that your finished sweater will be cozy, warm, and comfortable with its smooth, soft feel. Pair your favorite shades and cast on a wear with anything layer that will effortlessly add warmth and style. Mosaic pattern is both charted and written out.
