Valley Yarns 936 Paprika

Valley Yarns Paprika is a women’s pullover turtleneck that features cables and textured center panels on both the front and back knit in Valley Yarns Valley Superwash DK. The sweater is perfect for layering over your favorite long sleeve tee and ready for pumpkin-picking or jumping in a towering pile of leaves! Paprika is knit flat in pieces and then seamed. The turtleneck stitches are picked up and worked in the round. Valley Superwash DK is made from 100% extra fine Merino, which makes it incredibly soft and is machine-washable in cold water with a gentle detergent or Eucalan. The 3-ply construction of this yarn gives it an excellent stitch definition. The cable pattern is charted and written out.
