From pattern description:


“Cropped jacket in reverse woven stitch with gently fitted and flared shaping, bracelet-length sleeves and dressmaker finishing - mitered-corner facings and knited shoulder pads.”

From Vogue Knitting, Fall 1996:


“Prada’s lady-like suits and jackets for this season echo those women wore in the Fifties, but look so smart, right now. Shirley Paden’s knit version is done in the reversed woven stitch with a demure collar, bracelet length sleeves and three-button closure.”
