Zipper Jacket - Paper
The Zipper Jacket is knitted from the top down. The back piece is knitted first, and then the two front pieces. Before the body is completed, double knit front edges are knitted on the yoke, and the stitches from here are subsequently included in the body stitches. The double knit front edges appear in stockinette stitch on both the right and wrong sides.
The jacket closes at the front with a zipper, and a lining is knitted for the zipper before it is assembled.
The sleeves are knitted in the round from the open sts at the sleeve opening. Finally, the inside pockets are knitted from the open sts on the front of the jacket.
Knit a swatch to find the needle size that gives you the right gauge.
Size guide
The Zipper Jacket should have a positive ease of movement of approx. 35 cm in relation to your chest measurement. The fit is oversized. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL correspond to a chest measurement, measured on your own body, of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) 140-150 cm. The measurements of the finished jacket are stated on the front of the pattern. Measure yourself before you start knitting, to consider which size will fit you best. For example, if you measure 88 cm around the chest (or the widest part of your upper body), you should knit size S. A jacket in size S has an upper width of 123 cm and in the above example will provide a range of movement ( positive ease ) of 35 cm.
The model in the picture is wearing size XS, has a chest measurement of 82 cm and is 164 cm tall.
