Taking inspiration from the shape of vintage bed jackets, The Rainbow Jacket is worked in multiple colored stripes from the top down with raglan shaping to create the sleeves. No seaming is required. Designed to be layered over a mock neck or tank, it fastens with one button at the collar and drapes open similar to a cape.
