Novus DK Jacket

*It only took 9 years to release a DK weight version of the [**Novus Jacket**][1]!* This wearable cardigan is knit with my Novus Construction: a seamless, yet structured approach to side to side sweater design. Novus Jacket is a seamless loose sweater jacket constructed in a simple but unusual way: * First the Right Half is worked side to side from the cuff to the armpit and then stitches are cast on for the front and back. Then the shoulder is worked and the stitches are split for neckline shaping. * Next a Left Half is worked that mirrors the Right Half. * Then these two halves are joined together by a garter stitch back panel that is worked perpendicularly to them. * Next, small side seam panels are worked in the same manner as the back panel. These start at the hem and end at the cuff of the sleeve, joining the front and the back of the sweater. * Finally stitches are put back on the needle to work the collar all the way around the neckline of the sweater. The best parts?
