Description
Mosaic stitch patterning on the fronts gives this V-neck jacket a retro flair, underlined by the restrained texture on the back. If you can’t resist the look of little boys in grandpa cardigans, this one’s for you.
Using one multi-coloured yarn for the colourwork will give the patterning extra energy, but for the true vintage vibe, be sure to keep the garter-stitch hem, cuffs and neckband solid.
This colourwork is easy because it's created with slipped stitches and only one yarn is handled in a row.
Gauge: 30 sts and 42 rows = 4" (10 cm) over St st using larger needles, blocked.
Finished Chest Measurements: 21 (22 3⁄4, 24 1⁄4, 25 3⁄4)(27 3⁄4, 28 3⁄4, 30 3⁄4)" / 53.5 (58, 61.5, 65.5)( 70.5, 73, 78) cm
