Classic yet chic, Newport from the Kathy Elkins Fall in New England Collection adds neutral stripes to the hem and cuffs for a thoughtful twist on a simple sweater. Valley Yarns Brodie is a velvety soft cashmere with a touch of Merino wool blended in. Brodie’s soft, luxurious feel and exceptional warmth make this pullover one you will want to wear anytime the temperature dips. Newport is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up with a three-needle bind-off joining the shoulders and seams at the sides. Sleeve stitches are picked up from around the armhole edge and worked in the round to the wrist and a mock turtleneck provides a cozy finish to this polished pullover.
