This close fitting jacket is just simple stockinette st with reverse stockinette and the shape was inspired by
the Venetian gondolas. The shine from the gondolas’ varnished hulls and satin seats is represented by the
luxurious sheen of the bamboo in Galileo, which also gives the jacket’s ruching the necessary drape.

Included are diagrams showing how to to do the gathering/ruching along with written directions.

Takes 9-10 balls of Galileo, depending on size.
