Valley Yarns Newport Jumper Knitting Pattern

Description

Valley Yarns presents 012 Newport from the Kathy Elkins Fall in New England Collection, a must-have womens pullover knit in Brodie. The sweater showcases a fabulous color blocked hem and cuffs worked in a slip stitch rib pattern and a mock turtleneck. Newport is one youll love to wear and go for a relaxing stroll in the park or wear with trousers for a day at the office. The pullover is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and then seamed. The turtleneck stitches are picked up along the neck edge and worked in the round. Valley Yarns Brodie is a silky soft cashmere yarn with a touch of extrafine Merino that works up beautifully. The slip stitch pattern is charted and written out.
