Love: “This VERY EASY jacket, with a double thick collar, wrap front and self belt, is super cozy and a breeze to knit! It is worked in one piece from the hem to the shoulder seams. The body of the sweater is worked back and forth in stocking stitch, and the wrap is added later. Sleeves are knitted in rounds from shoulder to cuff, and there is a six stitch decrease panel down the top of the sleeve.” Gorgeous, smart, dashing, and the only sewing is to tack down the inner double-thickness of the collar/band to the inside of the piece and close the folded-over ends.
