About the Design:
This woman’s jacket version is made with just 1 strand of bulky yarn, and, though it is warm, it is not as heavy a jacket as the original.
I also made some changes to the original – this pattern has no hood. I don’t like hoods, myself, and was finding that many women were knitting the jacket for themselves, not their husbands, as was the intent of the original design. I do, however, like a foldover ribbed collar, so that is what I have used in this version.
This jacket, I will happily wear! I have kept the upper body patterning, the zipper closure, and the slanted pockets, that are typical to a sweatshirt, giving it it’s distinctive look.
I’ve made it in a wear-with-everything charcoal grey, but, as Brown Sheep Lamb’s Pride Bulky comes in tons of exciting colors, there’s no reason to limit yourself to a subdued color, if you desire more flash in your wardrobe!
Finally, this pattern is in 5 sizes, 2 more than the original, for a greater range of fit.
