Newsom is a lightweight play on mitered shaping--a little fun, a little quirky, but all in a simple, clean, and effortless package.

For a top-down version, check out Waits!
Use the coupon code “DUET” to get Newsom and Waits together for $11 rather than $14! Applies to all previous Newsom purchases as well. Please note: if you purchased Newsom while it was previously on sale, Ravelry will automatically adjust the price of Waits in your cart so that the final total is $11. If this happens, please let me know and I’ll refund the difference.

Sample is shown in size 38 1/4” on 33” bust; between 3-6” of positive ease recommended.

Note: if interested in adding length to the sweater, please see notes in Comments section. Thanks!
