From p.157: “There’s quite a lot of knitting in this coat, but it’s all on big needles, mostly in stocking stitch and well worth the effort when you’ve finished. This design has generous gathered sleeves and a double-breasted front so there’s plenty to wrap up in.”

Can be made as a longer coat or shorter jacket.

Also requires a 5mm circular needle (for working button band flat), a cable needle and 8 (short) or 16 (long) buttons.
