Valley Yarns Yuzu is a long and luxurious v-neck women’s cardigan that that is meant to be worn with any outfit. Knit in Valley Superwash, it’s a classic design with a new variation—twisted rib bands that add a stylish detail. Yuzu is knit back and forth in one piece from the bottom hem to the armholes and is then divided to work from the v-neck shaping to the short-row shaped shoulders. Set-in sleeves are worked flat and then seamed into the armholes. In Valley Yarns Valley Superwash yarn, it is meant for three-season wear and adds polish to a crisp blouse at the office or a tee shirt on the weekend. The twist stitch rib pattern is both charted and written out.
