And the final 2 patterns from Landing, both with pockets!
Spindrift
Spindrift is full of great details: patch pockets, a wide collar, and a textured pattern down the back. The fronts lay open for a casual look, but can also be overlapped to bundle up. It’s just the kind of thing you’ll want to reach for on a chilly day.
Finished Measurements: 33 1⁄2 (35 3⁄4, 39, 42 1⁄4, 45 1⁄4, 48 1⁄2, 51 3⁄4, 55, 58 1⁄4)” bust circumference.
Shown in size 33 1⁄2″ with 1⁄2″ of negative ease.

Newale
Newale, with its 3⁄4 length sleeves, has a fun little twist—a curved pocket detail that is shaped as you work it. It’s a neat (and useful!) detail that adds an interesting visual element to a classic one-button cardigan.
Finished Measurements: 32 1⁄2 (35 1⁄2, 38 3⁄4, 42, 45 1⁄4, 48 1⁄2, 51 1⁄2, 54 3⁄4, 58)” bust circumference.

I can’t say how many times I have wished for a book of Winged Knits patterns. One that I could hold in my hands while planning projects and dreaming.
