Red Jacket

This oversized box jacket is in two sizes to suit small to medium (UK dress size approximately 12 to 16) and medium to large (UK dress size approximately 18 to 22). Knitted in Aran weight yarn, it has dropped sleeves, stand up collar, side slits, pockets, textured rib at collar, cuffs, pocket tops and welt, with moss stitch front bands and button closure. The garment is knitted flat, has side, sleeve and shoulder seams with stitches picked up to complete pocket tops, front bands and self lined collar. The techniques used are stocking stitch, two coloured ribbing and moss stitch and so although classified as intermediate, would be suitable for a beginner with a bit of help with picking up stitches for the finishing.

The original yarns (Jamieson & Smith Soft Spun) are no longer available and so a few alternatives are suggested here.

This is the plain version of "PoppyJacket". The pdf includes instructions for both versions.
