Make a sweeping statement in this dramatic long coat with an innovative notched collar in cartridge rib. The fronts are cut away from hip to hem to swing freely open, and the drop shoulders create just a touch of detail at the narrow sleeves. In woolen-spun Shelter, Corvid moves beautifully without weighing you down.
Construction
The back and fronts are worked flat from the bottom up and sewn together. The sleeves are picked up around the armholes and worked circularly to the cuff. The front extensions and collar are picked up and worked flat after garment assembly.
Yardage
2020 (2130, 2370, 2600, 2830, 2990) yards of worsted weight wool yarn
Yarn
15 (16, 17, 19, 21, 22) skeins Brooklyn Tweed Shelter (100% American Targhee-Columbia wool; 140 yards/50g)

Gauge
20 stitches & 30 rows = 4” in stockinette stitch with Size A needle(s), after blocking
Needles
Size A (for Main Fabric)
One 32” circular needle and one set of double-pointed needles (DPNs) in size needed to obtain gauge listed
Suggested Size: 4½ mm (US 7)
Size B (for Ribbing)
One 32” circular needle and one set of DPNs, two sizes smaller than Size A
Suggested Size: 3¾ mm (US 5)
32” circular needle can be used instead of DPNs if using the Magic Loop method for working small circumferences in the round (i.e., Sleeves).
Finished Dimensions
16¾ (18½, 20¾, 22½, 24¾, 26½)“ back width at chest
Sized to fit approximate chest sizes 30–32 (34–36, 38–40, 42–44, 46–48, 50–52)”
Sample shown is size 18½“ back width on models with 32” and 35” chest circumferences
Note: The sizing is given as the width of the back; the fronts will drape when worn and therefore the total circumference of the garment is variable.
