Brooklyn

Introducing Brooklyn, a densely knit, Garter stitch “jacket,” named for one of my favorite cities. This cropped, double-breasted design is worked flat from the top down, allowing leeway for personalized length of both bodice and sleeves. Stitches are picked up along the neckline for the collar where short rows create shaping at its back. Wear it folded over or upright, as you wish. 2 columns of 3 buttons enclose the overlapping front, gradually decreasing in their spacing as they move towards the hem, with 1 extra at the neckline to close up that last bit, if desired. Sleeves are seamed and set in.

14 page PDF includes pattern instructions, photographs, assembly diagrams, schematics, row tracking grid for managing at-the-same-time instructions, instructional links and photo tutorials for sleeve and cap seaming, and definitions for relevant abbreviations.
