For The Love of Brioche Jacket
Pattern is available in English and Danish, find Danish description below.
January 10th 2023
Pattern is now updated with size 5 (chest width 158 cm/63¼“) and size 6 (170 cm/68”).
For now only in English.
These sizes are not tested, please do not hesitate contacting me if you have any comments.
This jacket is designed with the intension of creating a garment you should feel right at home in as soon as it touches your shoulders. My main focus in the developing process was to get the best fit around the shoulders and armhole.
I love brioche and the possibilities for letting the shaping with increases and decreases become an essential part of the design.
The shorter length and slanting pockets makes this jacket an easy and functional addition to most wardrobes. Use it as a warm cardigan on colder days or as a jacket on cool summer evenings.
Jacket is worked flat, top-down by shaping yoke over shoulders, sleeve cap, body and front edges with increases before body and sleeves are separated and worked separately.
Pocket openings are worked into body and pocket bags are worked last and stitched to inside. Sleeves are worked in the round.
Front edges are picked up and worked flat in one piece over back neck.
Spreadsheet enclosed for easy overview of increases on yoke.
Yarn
Camilla Vad Lambswool 9/3, 300 m/100 gr or another sport weight wool yarn, I recommend to use a not too smooth yarn.
Meterage aprox. 1400 (1700) 1900 (2100) meters/ 1530 (1860) 2075 (2295) yards. Meterage/yardage can vary with different yarn choice or slightly different gauge.
Needles
4 mm/US 6 circular needles for body, 100 cm
4 mm/US 6 DPNs for sleeves, if not using the Magic loop method
3,5 mm/US 4 circular needles for rib edges, 100 cm.
3,5 mm/US 4 DPNs for sleeve cuffs, if not using the Magic loop method
Gauge
15 st and 48 rows in brioche on 4 mm blocked = 10 x 10 cm
Note: When counting rows in brioche, remember that every visible stitch is 2 rows.
I always recommend to make a gauge swatch and wash it, especially in brioche as brioche stretches a lot after wash.
Notions
Stitch markers
Tapestry needle
4 pcs metal press buttons 19 mm, for sewing.

DANSK
Jeg har designet denne jakke med det ønske at skabe en jakke man føler sig hjemme i så snart den rører ens skuldre. Mit største fokus i udviklingen har været pasformen omkring skuldrene og ærmegabet.
Jeg elsker patent og de muligheder teknikken giver for at gøre selve formgivningen til en del af designet med fine ud- og indtagninger.
Den kortere længde og skrå lommer gør jakken fin og funktionel at bruge over det meste tøj, som primær beklædning på de kolde dage, eller som overtøj på en kølig sommeraften.
Jakken strikkes frem og tilbage, oppefra og ned ved at forme bærestykket over skuldrene, ærmekuppel, krop og forkanter med udtagninger inden ærmerne sættes fra og kroppen strikkes færdig separat. Lommeåbninger strikkes ind i kroppen og lommepose strikkes til sidst og monteres på bagsiden. Ærmerne strikkes rundt. Forkanterne samles op og strikkes i et stykke.
Skema vedlagt opskrift til nemt overblik over udtagningerne på bærestykket.
Materialer
Camilla Vad Lambswool 9/3, 300 m/100 gr eller andet uldgarn, jeg anbefaler at garnet ikke er for glat.
Forbrug, ca. 1400 (1700) 1900 (2100) meter. Vær opmærksom på at forbrug kan variere i forhold til evt. andet garnvalg og hvor præcis din strikkefasthed er.
Rundpind 4 mm, 100 cm, 3,5 mm 100 cm
Strømpepinde i samme størrelser hvis ikke der strikkes ‚magic loop‘.
4 trykknapper 19 mm til påsyning.
Strikkefasthed
15 m og 48 p i patent på p 4 mm = 10 x 10 cm
NB! Når der skal tælles p i arbejdet, så husk, at hver synlig maske er dannet af 2 p.
Det er altid en god ide at lave en strikkeprøve og vaske den, i sær i patent, der ofte åbner sig meget efter vask.
Mål
Overvidde^: ca. 104 (118) 132 (146) 158 (170) cm
Hel længde: ca. 55 (57) 58 (59) 59 (60) cm
Ærmegabsdybde: ca. 22 (24) 26 (27) 27 (28) cm
Skulder til skulder/ryg vidde før kropsudtagninger^^: ca. 34 (37) 40 (43) 45 (47) cm
Overarmsvidde: ca. 45 (50) 54 (58) 63 (66) cm
Ærmer: 50 cm (alle str.)
^ Jakken er designet med en rørlighedsvidde omkring 10-20 cm.
^^ Skulder til skulder/ryg vidden er smal for at give en god pasform omkring ærmekuppel og ærmegab.
