Inspired by TV’s Downton Abbey, this is a feminine jacket in double moss stitch with refined details, perfect for either the office or a weekend in the country. Knitted in one piece, the body is worked from the bottom up while the drop sleeves are knitted top down with deep buttoned cuffs for a perfect fit. All the shaping is done in the side and underarm “seam stitches”. The elegant shape of the jacket, with its V-neck and back flaps is forgiving to a variety of figures. There are two closure options; a 3-button treatment, or a 7-button application to close the jacket all the way to the neck.
