Coat for Roxane is a buttoned, hooded coat designed for the lovely soft woolen yarn Cyrano De Rerum Natura.

It is worked back and forth in rows from the top down. The cables on the saddle shoulders continue on the sleeves and on the hood. The body is worked with a slightly A-line shaping. The sleeves are worked in the round and finished with ribbed cuffs. After completing the body and sleeves, the hood is knitted from bottom up. A ribbed button band and optionally diagonal pockets are added to the finished coat.
