Newport Hand Knitted Cardigan Pattern by Dolce Hand Knits
Make it sassy or make it classy.
The Newport Cardigan is a cropped knit jacket with a hook and eye closed front that you'll love snuggling into as the days take on a chill. Knit in a bulky weight yarn, it works up quickly, and with straight sides, this piece is easy to lengthen if cropped isn't your style! This sweater is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and seamed. Includes about 2" of ease for a standard fit.
