This batwing-shaped jacket
starts with front and back
cable panels each worked from
the bottom up. Next, sts are
picked up along the sides of the
panels, the fronts are shaped
along the lower edges and the
sleeves are worked down to the
cuffs. Finally, the neckband and
lower edges are worked in G st
before the sleeve seams are
joined. A decorative clasp is the
single fastening at the neck.
The jacket is worked lat but a
circular needle is recommended
for the large number of sts.
