This jacket boasts a double-breasted front and collar for warmth, as well as stitch detailing that will keep just enough of your brain involved while working the project. It features a turning-ridge which can later be let out for more length as he grows, and extra ease is built in so that it can be worn over other clothing. Shown in size 8. I designed this sweater as a masculine version of my Johanna Jacket.
