Construction begins at the neckline and proceeds downward. The main body is worked back and forth in stockinette stitch, while the sleeves are knitted seamlessly in the round. Short‑row shaping across the upper back adds extra depth, improving comfort and ensuring the jacket sits naturally on the body. Finishing details include neat 1×1 ribbing along the collar, cuffs, and hem. The pattern also offers two alternative button band styles, allowing for a personalized finish. The jacket is designed to be worn with a minimum of 30 cm / 12″ of positive ease.
