Description
Vertex Pattern by Cocoknits
I originally worked Vertex in Loft for Brooklyn Tweed. It’s also wonderfully flowy and weightless in this yarn from A Verb for Keeping Warm. Vertex makes a great top layer to add some vertical lines to the figure. It’s knitted bottom up, requires kitchener st but only two little seams connect fronts to back at the shoulders.
