This is a bed jacket with lots of ease. It is knit flat, top down to create a round yoke with short row shaping at the back neck, with the lace body falling in a heavily gathered style. It is seamless and has billowing sleeves with fitted cuffs. It closes with a button at the neck.

It is knit top down starting with the bulky weight silk. At the body of the garment you switch to the laceweight with a k1, yo, k1, yo, k1 in each stitch to increase the stitch count. We have included 3 different sizes here. Because of the amount of ease in the garment, we expect that almost everyone will make the middle size, (finished garment size of 75 inches). The other sizes are included to demonstrate how sizing adjustments can be made if you do wish to make a smaller or larger size.
