November Jacket - PetiteKnit knitting pattern

The November jacket is knitted from top to bottom in English brioche stitch. First, a section is worked in double-face stitch (double-knit) at the neck and joins the front edges. Stitches are cast on for the back on this piece, then the right and left shoulders are knitted. These three sections are then gathered on one needle to form the body, which is worked in English brioche stitch in rows with double-faced facings. Stitches are cast on for the sleeves around the armholes. Finally, pockets are knitted in English brioche stitch and sewn onto the jacket.

Size Guide

The November jacket should have a positive ease of approximately 20 cm. Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL correspond to a chest circumference of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) 140-150 cm. Measure yourself with a tape measure before you start knitting to determine the size that fits you best. For example, if your chest (or stomach, if that's the widest part of your body) measures 94 cm, you should choose size M. A size M jacket has a chest circumference of 115 cm and, in this case, would have a positive ease of 21 cm.
