Pearl
Description
This jacket features a slightly cropped body length with relaxed fit. The body is worked flat from the bottom up to the underarms. Then the back and front are worked separately with shaping for armholes, neck and shoulders. The sleeves are worked in the round from the bottom up. Sleeve caps are worked flat and set in. Sleeves instructions are written to use DPNs; however, an alternate method of working small circumferences in the round can be used, such as Magic-Loop, or a short circular needle for the larger sizes.
