BUTTONED JACKET

Noro Knitting Magazine Fall/Winter 2013 #21

Design by Mari Tobita

Overall welted patterns add coziness and charm to Tobita’s asymmetrical buttoned jacket. The body sides and set-in sleeves are worked side to side in Noro Mossa colorway #12 using short-row shaping, while the front and back center panels are worked from the bottom up in Louisa Harding Grace Silk & Wool. The mock turtleneck welted collar is knit separately in Mossa.
