There were traditions and rules, however, about how to walk, when to walk, and the proper attire.  For women, that was the walking suit – a fitted jacket and matching skirt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis jacket is worked flat, from the bottom up, on straight needles.  Waist shaping, leg o’mutton sleeves, lapels, and a button band add realistic detail.  Stitches are picked up at the armhole and worked in the round after the body is completed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe skirt is worked in the round from the bottom up to about 2 inches from the top, where it switches to knitting flat for ease in dressing.  A button is added to the top for a snug fit around her waist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e~ \u003cem\u003eThis pattern is for the Victorian Walking Suit only (jacket and skirt).  It was designed to fit China Doll, a pattern which can be found on my Ravelry designer page.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independent Designer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56739795861882,"sku":"UPID55671","price":2.23,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/3219\/4170\/files\/a167ea7d8ccc8831f2541e9a564fcae021006f46_UPID55671_172892975251267.jpg?v=1775792257","url":"https:\/\/www.lovecrafts.com\/en-gb\/products\/victorian-walking-suit-knitting-pattern-by-sara-elizabeth-kellner","provider":"LoveCrafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
