Simple patterns, an interesting shape, and a lucious yarn make this little jacket a rare confection. Setting up the pattern is demanding, and there’s a bit of a challenge when the collar starts, but it’s well worth the effort. The body with gussets is knit in one piece, with sleeves knit separately and then set-in.
