Fade to Light Jacket is designed to fit with 4-6 inches (10-15 cm) of positive ease at the bust and 1.25-2 in (3-5 cm) of positive ease at the upper arm. The jacket is worked seamlessly from top down. First some short rows are worked back and forth to raise the back neck. Then the yoke with raglan increases is worked in rows to separation for body and sleeves. The lower body with mosaic pattern is worked in rows to bottom. Sleeves are worked top down. The length of the body and sleeves is easily adjustable.

Yarn choice

Fade to Light Jacket pattern was designed especially for Scheepjes Whirl Fine Art and Merino Soft yarns. Use one Whirl cake for size XXS-S, choose between one or two Whirl cakes for size M, and two Whirls are recommended for sizes L-5X. The rest of the yarn is Merino Soft.

Alternatively, Fade to Light Jacket can be worked with Scheepjes Merino Soft Brush yarn instead of Whirl Fine Art: one Whirl is replaced with 5 skeins of Merino Brush (and two Whirls are replaced with 9 skeins of Merino Brush accordingly).

The yoke begins with Whirl and solid shade of Merino Soft is added later for the sleeves and mosaic lower body. You can either start working with light or dark tail of Whirl.

You will need 500 (550, 600, 620, 680, 740, 790, 840, 890, 940)g of yarn, or 1 (1, 1, 1(2), 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2) Whirl Fine Art cakes and
6 (7, 8, 8(4), 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10) balls of Merino Soft

Please, note that yarn amounts are approximate. They were estimated for specific measurements: length of the lower body from underarm approx. 35.5cm/14”. If you want to make your jacket longer, you will need more yarn

Other materials: 4.5 mm hook, stitch markers, yarn needle, buttons or clasps (optional)
