Pattern description from Knitting Workshop: “LLOIE’S JERKIN is cast on at the lower back, worked up and over the shoulders, and separated for the neck and fronts. Its simple construction makes it a good beginner’s project. LLOIE’S JERKIN is the simplest of the simple, knitted in doubled ICELANDIC wool.”

This pattern does not specify yarn weight or brand, needle size, gauge, yardage or size shown. These factors are left entirely up to the individual.

The pattern description and diagrams appear on pages 96-97 of The Knitting Workshop. Tutorial for I-cord tab buttonholes on page 107 and for afterthought pockets on page 108.

The vest is worn by EZ in one of the Knitting Workshop installments. She cuts into the sweater to make an impromptu pocket on the video.
