This great jacket has a hem lower in the back than the front (a handkerchief hemline) and has long sleeves with thumb-holes. It is not just a shorter version of the Coat of Many Colors.

This pattern has “short” tiers due to the scoop hemline so it is a bit more challenging. I have written the instructions with graphics so an intermediate knitter can knit this. Following the “graphics map” makes it clear.
Please read the entire pattern before starting. It will give you an overall vision of the project.

The yarn “Taiyo” is a blend of cotton, silk and wool which is very breathable in transitional weather. It only takes 5 (5, 6) 6, 7, 7 balls and is a 36 (40, 44) 48, 52, 56 inch chest after wet blocking.
