This is a re-interpretation of a 1940’s bedjacket, with updated details for a modern yarn gauge and in an extended size range.

Just a note on fit:

I’ve had people mention the stretch across the back neck and shoulders of this as being a problem for fit. This is exacerbated by the heaviness of the sleeves.

If your Angelina is misbehaving in this way, try running an invisible backstitch from one shoulder, across the back of the neck and down the other shoulder to control the ribbing. It should help enormously with the fit.
