Strawflower from Valley Yarns Designer Series is a lovely women’s pullover knit in Ashfield. The sweater features lace dolman sleeves with a lace panel down the center back and front. Strawflower is knit in two pieces from the bottom up, and the sleeves are cast on and worked together with the body and then seamed. The neckband stitches and cuffs are picked up along the edge and worked in the round. Valley Yarns Ashfield is a silky soft, and smooth blend of fine Merino wool and bamboo viscose that offers beautiful drape and sheen.
