About the design
My goal with this jacket was to make it as simple, clean and without disturbing details as possible - because simplicity in itself can be a detail.
BONUS-jacket is worked top down in 1x1 rib. Begin in the neckline, and from here you knit the upper part of back, shaped by short rows. Then the upper part of the 2 fronts are made. Under the armhole the 3 parts are connected and the body is knitted in desired length, and finally the sleeves are made - also worked top down.
