This jacket is worked in separate pieces from the lower edge to the shoulders and sewn together. The fronts are worked in stranded colourwork, with the strands carried across the RS of the work. Fully fashioned shoulder shaping is worked on the back only, so the shoulder seams wrap over the shoulder. The waist is shaped and the jacket has set-in sleeves.
This knitting pattern includes written directions, front and back images, colourwork chart, and a schematic with measurements.
