Debbie Bliss Knitting Magazine Spring/Summer 2009 #2
design by Debbie Bliss
The classic riding jacket—below-hip length, button front, tidy lapels—in Prima, a light bamboo/merino blend with a fine sheen. The peplum is sculpted with knife pleats that provide a shapely silhouette without bulk; this aspect is emphasized by a half belt.
