PATTERN | PARIS LOOP

The PARIS LOOP jacket with a short, straight cut and small pockets is worked in a linen stitch pattern using one strand each of two elegant alpaca yarns in two different colors, creating the structure and appearance of a woven wool fabric. The front and back sections are worked from the bottom up in rows in one piece up to the armholes; then the sections are continued separately, including the neck opening and shoulder shaping. The sleeves are also worked in rows, beginning in two sections for the button band slit and ending with a sleeve cap. The pockets are also worked separately and sewn on. After setting in the sleeves, all the edges are finished in crochet, using single crochet and crab stitch.

The sizes correspond to the bust circumference as follows:

S (M; L; XL; XXL) = 32 (35; 39; 42; 46)“ 82 (90; 98; 107; 117) cm bust circumference (measured on the body).

The jacket has a straight, short shape with approx. 2.4“ (6 cm) of positive ease for a good fit.
