To make it through the harsh and enduring winter, survivors will obviously need warm clothes. Luckily, you are armed with knitting needles and chunky yarn made from the few mutant alpacas left roaming the earth. This jacket uses the honeycomb brioche stitch to create an extra thick, yet flexible, body. The sleeves are ribbed and close-fitting but stretchy enough to provide with the range of motion you need when protecting your turf, hunting alpacas, and making toxic snowmen. Plus, it’s very snuggly. The world may have ended but sweaters can still be comfy! Just watch out for those mutant alpacas, they pack a nasty bite.

This pattern is in the book Doomsday Knits, which is currently available at cooperativepress.com, as well as here on Ravelry.
