This stylish jacket is knit side-to-side. A very clever graduated cast on is used to make it an A-line. The A-line shape gives you a wonderful tailored fit and is figure flattering to all body types. It also allows you to use those wonderful variegated yarns to give you vertical, slimming stripes. The jacket is worked in stockinette stitch, with garter edges.
