Child’s stylish jacket with pockets and optional hood.

This jacket was designed especially for Oliver. This little man (6 years old) really knows what he wants. He just loves to wear hand knitted soft and cozy garments, and particularly wanted a jacket with pockets (to hold any little treasures he has found), a hood, to keep his ears warm and lastly and most importantly a zipper (much easier than buttons to close). He now is one very happy little boy!!!

P044

Being an Australian designer I use UK/Australian terminology, however I do realise this may cause some confusion. Together with my Tech editors, we are working through my patterns ensuring the use of more universally recognised terminology, and simplifying pattern instructions. This pattern has gone through the process, and a schematic has also been added.
Anyone who purchases this pattern after 9/11/2016 will automatically receive the revised pattern.
