Description

This knitting pattern is in English.

The November Jacket is worked from the top down in brioche stitch. First. a section is worked in double knitting for the back of the neck. which will later be connected to the front edges. Then. stitches are picked up and knitted along one side of this section and the back yoke is worked from these stitches. After this. the right shoulder and left shoulder are worked. These three sections are joined at the underarms. and the body is worked back and forth in brioche stitch with front edges in double knitting. Stitches are picked up and knitted around the armholes and the sleeves are worked down from these. The pockets are also worked in brioche stitch and sewn on at the end.
