This Santa style jacket and hat combo features a cosy (and easier than it looks!) fur stitch collar and cuffs and optional moss stitch belt. The jacket is designed in a raglan style featuring full-fashioned decreases. The chunky yarn also means that this project knits up quite quickly - an ideal last minute Christmas project! Techniques include knit and purl stitches, fur stitch and full-fashioned decreases.
