Valley Yarns 1117 Loch PDF

Valley Yarns Loch is a stunning unisex Fair Isle pullover knit in
Northfield. The Fair Isle motifs are situated carefully on the upper sleeves
and lower chest, making it doable for less experienced knitters. Loch is worked
in the round from the bottom up to the armholes. All colorwork is done in the
round before dividing the front and back. The sleeves are knit from the cuffs
to the shoulder and then seamed into the armholes. The Fair Isle pattern is in
chart form only.
