Embrace in a celebration of color and texture in this joyful jacket. You can ensure that no two Millefiori jackets will be the same due to the fact that two different colorways were used. Self-striping chunky weight Noro creates unexpected and delightful pops of color. Patch pockets and a shawl collar finish off this cozy couture wearable art.

Each entrelac square should measure 3 ½” across on US Size

Adjust needle size if necessary to obtain the correct gauge. See Designer note about gauge.
Designer note about gauge… since entrelac is worked on a slant in blocks, you’ll want to measure a gauge swatch in blocks rather than stitches and rows. This can easily be done by casting on 12 stitches with US Size 10 ½ (6.5mm) needle. Work Starting Triangles, Left Side Triangle and then Right Slanting Diamonds. You may remove the work from your needle, block your swatch, and then measure. Adjust the needle size as necessary to obtain gauge. You can then rip out your swatch as needed and reknit with the yarn.
