This pattern is no more available.

Jacket with lapels, waist shaping and pouchy pockets. A cable pattern on the sleeves with bell cuffs and saddle shoulders. 4 buttons.

This pattern was inspired by the Colinette One Zero yarn and it’s wonderful shade Wasabi Squeeze.

The stitch patterns include:

  • garter stitch
  • moss stitch
  • reverse stockinette stitch

Chart for the cable pattern in the sleeves included.

At the moment the pattern includes only one size, about a medium size. More sizes may follow later on. The measurements are: bust 96 cm, waist 90 cm, hem 106 cm, length 71 cm.

Note for yarn substituting: only a little over 1 kg was used.

Tip for counting the rows at the lapel:
the extra forth-and-back round when knitting a shorted row is not counted in the row count. Only complete edge-to-edge knitted rows are counted, i.e. the row count can be taken at the armhole edge. The row count at the lapel edge contains extra shortened rows = 2 rows more per shortened row.
