This simple stockinette-stitch jacket is perfect for beginning knitters who do not want to be distracted by borders or bands. Here, all of the edges are left “bare,” which means they are allowed the freedom to roll slightly. The garter-stitch belt cinches the waist loosely or snugly, as desired, or can be abandoned altogether for a freer, more relaxed look.
