Berroco Ballentine PDF

Soft, romantic style meets everyday wearability in Berroco Ballentine with its dreamy lace yoke set into a classic crewneck pullover. This sweater is knit seamlessly from the top down and includes short row shaping at the back neck for fit, and a round yoke construction that sets up the lace panel that gives the finished piece that perfect touch. Berroco Mistico ensures that your finished sweater will be soft, warm, and lightweight with its unique blend of brushed alpaca halo and cotton, wool, and nylon core and it doesn’t sacrifice stitch definition, making it great for lace. Elevate your favorite jeans with Ballentine as a subtle statement sweater or layer it over dresses and tunics to add color and style to flowy ensembles. Lace pattern is both charted and written out.
