NATURALLY K491 BATIK JACKET KNITTING PATTERN
A relaxed children’s jacket with stocking-stitch lower sections and a textured-rib upper body, sized from 2 to 8 years.
Pattern overview: The back, fronts and sleeves are knitted flat. Gentle decreases shape the lower stocking-stitch body before the textured rib begins. The shoulders and side seams are joined, the sleeves are set between marked points, and picked-up neck and front bands finish the jacket with three buttons. An intermediate project for knitters comfortable with texture patterns, garment shaping, picked-up bands and seaming.
