Valley Yarns Cormorant is a women’s gorgeous colorwork yoke pullover knit in Valley Yarns Haydenville DK. The deep yoke drapes over the shoulders to form cap sleeves that look great dressed up or down.
Cormorant is knit in the round from the bottom up to the underarms, then divided and later seamed to the base of the yoke. The yoke is worked separately in the round in stranded colorwork from the cast-on edge to the neck. The colorwork patterns are in chart form only.
