POST 1 of 3:: Corkline

There are 3 new pattern designs on display this weekend at Rhinebeck Sheep & Wool Festival. Please note, the patterns are NOT available yet but will be soon. They are them on display so you CAN purchase yarn for them!
⁣
This design is called Corkline.
A Corkline is an upper line of floats on a gillnet giving it the buoyancy it needs to catch fish. That is the inspiration behind this sweater. A vertical criss cross netting travels around the yoke with a bobble stitch accenting the center of each motif. This pattern also offers a chart that is without bobbles. Either design you choose, this top-down, knit in the round sweater is a unique colorwork sweater for your handmade wardrobe.
⁣
> Rhinebeck attendees can purchase yarn in person. North Bay Fiber will be in the Zeilinger Wool Co booth ( located in Building 31 / Booth 32⁣)
