The jacket is knitted from the top down in stocking stitch. The button placket is knitted double and is the start of the work. Then, stitches are picked up along the entire button placket, which is divided into the front and back piece and the shoulder stitches. Then, increases are made on both the right side and the wrong side, a total of 4 increases per round, around the 9 shoulder stitches. This means that the increases are made before and after the shoulder stitches. The puff sleeves should also be increased. When the puff sleeves are finished, classic raglan is used as the increase. Finally, the body is finished with a folded edge. From beginning to end, the double folded button placket is knitted. The sleeves are finished with an i-cord edge.

Size guide

Chest measurement of approximately 85 (90) 94 (106) 111 (115) 122 cm cm corresponds to size XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL. The jacket has a positive ease of approximately 3 - 5 cm. This means that if you measure approximately 90 cm around the chest, you should knit a size S. Measure yourself before you start knitting.

It is a good idea to knit a sample before you start, to check that the knitting tension is correct. Note that the knitting tension is stated after the jacket has been rinsed.
