9011 Knitted Fitted Jacket

This sporty jacket has many virtues. It's very fast to knit because the soft wool is so bulky. The only embellishment is the side and raglan seam treatment, which adds a simple eyelet edging up the side seams and into the yoke area, drawing attention to the face. Otherwise the edgings are anchored by wide garter stitch welts: nothing extra-fussy, just practical and solid. There's waist shaping, too. This is meant to be figure-hugging-- recommended ease is only 1" - 2.5". Smart and soft. From 2005.
