Simple, straightforward pattern. The resources I found through the forum were helpful in visualizing the stripes and such. I loved joing the BSJ community!
Chinese Waitress cast on. Added extra shortrows for row 80 and picked up 19 sts on row 81. Bound off until the second marker on row 89 to make the front lapel more suited to an icord button band, then continued back and forth for 8 more rows until binding off the jacket’s left side.
Picked up 37 sts each side for 3 needle bind off joining tops of arms. While applying icord bind off: skipped one cast off stitch per button hole and knit icord for 3 rows before rejoining icord cast off.
