Here is a mid-week sneak peak at the second Newcastle Cardigan sample, this time a size medium sewn up in a cotton knit with a touch of acrylic.
My Granddad kindly modeled it for us and added a very classy vibe! He has requested a cardigan for himself (the one he’s modelling has already been claimed) with slightly shortened sleeves to closer match the sleeve length he is used to – a testament to the cardigan’s versatility for all ages and styles!
Next up are a few future cardigans – a large in both brown and grey sweatshirt fleece as well as a beautiful green wool blend which has not yet been assigned a size. Exciting!

Wow! Love your work! Makes me want to learn to sew so can make the husband one! Your grandad is a great model too 🙂

I think your design and the variety that can be had with details is admirable. I showed your first two samples to some younger males and they were interested in having me make one to fit. They want to model it too!

Thanks for spreading the word about the pattern – I’m glad that the design had a positive reception. I’ll contact you through email with details about modeling!
