Jenny Jacket V-neck is knitted from the top down in smocking. First, the back is knitted back and forth and shortened rows are knitted to form a shoulder slope. Then, sts are picked up at the top of the back piece from where the shoulders are knitted. The body is knitted back and forth on circular needle and the sleeves are knitted in the round in smocking. Finally, sts are picked up along the front edges where a double-knit button placket is knitted.
Make a swatch before you start knitting to find the needle size that gives you the right gauge. Wash the swatch before measuring the gauge.
Size guide
Jenny Jacket V-neck should have a positive ease of movement of approximately 15-20 cm in sizes XS to L, approximately 13-18 cm in sizes XL and 2XL and approximately 5-10 cm in sizes 3XL, 4XL and 5XL.

The measurements of the finished cardigan are given on the front of the pattern. Measure yourself before you start knitting to determine which size will fit you best.
