Valley Yarns presents Middlebury from the Kathy Elkins Fall in New England Collection, a stunning women’s pullover knit in Hampden. The sweater features gradient stripes at the hem, bell sleeves, and a v-neckline knit in four colors. Middlebury is knit in the round from the bottom up to the underarms, and stitches are cast-on for the long sleeves. The sleeve stitches are worked sideways to the shoulders and then seamed. Valley Yarns Hampden is a stunningly soft blend of baby alpaca, Merino wool, and silk, available in a palette of rich, saturated colors.
