Babette by LAMANA

This pattern is available on Ravelry.

The open-front jacket with linear front panels, worked in a pattern consisting of half-Brioche and cables, is worked in one piece from the bottom up to the bottom of the armholes. The front parts and back part are then each worked separately, and the shoulders are shaped using short rows. The shoulder seams are then closed using the 3-needle bind-off method.

The sleeves are worked entirely back and forth in half Brioche, and are then sewn into the armholes.

The length of the jacket can be adjusted individually and can be lengthened or shortened by adding or omitting 1 or 2 row pattern repeats (approx. 7,5 cm / 3” per row pattern repeat).
