Valley Yarns Red Maple is a cozy women’s sweater that features ribbed sleeves, subtle A-line shaping, and a scrunchy turtleneck flowing from the stockinette body. This flattering pullover is the ultimate in modern, stylish dressing. Knit in the round from the bottom up and armholes have minimal shaping and drop shoulders. Knit in Valley Yarns Peru, a spectacular blend of baby alpaca, Merino wool, with a hint of nylon that works beautifully into cowls, scarves, shawls or this sweater. A yarn with a chainette construction, you’ll get a warm, lightweight fabric from Peru that has a gorgeous drape.
