Description
Valley Yarns Tucana is a fun striped child’s pullover that combines neutral stripes with pops of the bright colors of Ashfield. This easy pattern is as fun for the knitter as it is for the kid wearing it. Tucana’s body and sleeves are worked in the round from the bottom up and then joined to the yoke. Valley Yarns Ashfield is a silky soft, and smooth blend of fine Merino wool and bamboo viscose that offers beautiful drape and sheen. The stripe sequence is in chart form only.
