The Live Your Dream Bomber is inspired by Barbie. Basic knit stitches are used to achieve the textured zig-zag look and Lion Brand’s Wool-ease Recycled yarn really helps to highlight the stitch definition. You can confidently live your cozy or glam dreams in this bomber.

Pattern is worked flat in rows, starting with bottom ribbing; then establish pattern while building body; then, split for sleeves and work right front panel, back panel and left front panel; three-needle bind-off seam shoulders, then, work neckline edging, and finish with sleeves.

Amount of positive ease will depend on where you fall within the size range: model is 5’3 with 36” bust, wearing M; therefore, giving her 4” of positive ease.
