Description from Knitty.com:
“Very Cherry” is a little fancier than everyday wear with its chi-chi yarn and long line. “Cherry Twist” wears well with jeans, and the twisted ribbing for which it’s named adds interest at shoulder and waistline.

The yarns carried together are heavenly soft, and the color ranges of both match up nicely for carrying the two together. Just a few skeins of each yarn are needed for this delicious attention-getter. Enjoy!
