This cabled coat from Shirley Paden’s Knitwear Design Workshop is an example of a double-taper body with a double-breasted front overlap. It features straight shoulders, v-neck shaping, and tapered sleeves with shaped turn-back cuffs and set-in caps. The cuffs, collar, and lapels are worked separately and sewn in place.

Time to celebrate the beauty of our craft. In the festive spirit of KDW’s 10th anniversary, we’re hosting the first Knit-Along (KAL) of 2020.
