A new addition to WEBS’ Modern Kids pattern portfolio, Valley Yarns Rambutan, knit in Conway, is a rugby-style striped top that makes a great first sweater project that will carry any active child through year-round wear. Timeless details include color-blocking, split-front henley neck and short row shaping for a better fit. Rambutan is knit flat from the bottom up and seamed together. Valley Yarns Conway is a very soft blend of Pima cotton and acrylic with a slight sheen—perfect for warmer-weather garments.
