Valley Yarns Grenache is a woman’s sweater worked in pieces from a provisional cast-on that separates the bodice and the sleeves from the body using Amherst. This tunic features companion Argyle textures in a combination of slip-stitch colorwork at the yoke and oversized lace at the hem. Its full sleeves and generous length make it a great layering piece. Knit in Valley Yarns Amherst, a worsted weight yarn that shows texture and stitch patterns beautifully and has a wide range of colors that are perfect for Fair Isle or intarsia. The Argyle pattern is in chart form only, and lace pattern is charted and written out.
