About The Design:
These jackets are knit in Brown Sheep yarns, which not only are readily available in many yarn shops, but are an exceptional value - great wool quality at a reasonable price!

This jacket is quick to knit in either Burly Spun, a super bulky wool yarn, used singly, or Country Classic Bulky (or Lamb’s Pride Bulky), used double.

The pewter clasps eliminate the hassle of making buttonholes and add more style.

As the jacket sits at the hip, one can wear either of 2 sizes comfortably.

The size one would normally wear in a jacket, for a looser fit, over other, outerwear garments or the next smaller size, for a trim, fitted, more business-like look.

The Periwinkle sample is a size S (42”), the Cattail Brown sample is a size M (45”).
