INFORMATION
The jacket is worked from the top down, starting with a cast-on at the neck. First, the back yoke is worked, then the left and right front yokes are worked separately before they are joined. The jacket is then worked back and forth with eyelet pattern, while the sleeves are worked in the round. All ribbed edges are finished with double stockinette stitch and Italian bind-off for the best result.

The sizes are based on the following positive ease measurements, which you add to your own bust measurement:
XS/S (M/L): approx. 25-35 cm
XL/2XL (3XL/4XL): approx. 14-33 cm

Example: Bust measurement 93 cm: XS/S = ease 22 cm. M/L = ease 32 cm.

The model in the picture has a bust measurement of 83 cm (32 cm ease on the jacket compared to bust measurement) and is wearing size XS/S with a length of 70 cm. The jacket is worked in one strand of Tvinni (color 39s) and two strands of Silk Mohair (color 28), both from Isager.
