This elegant reversible tuck pattern jacket, featuring the wrong side out, is beautifully accented with a garter stitch edging that adds a touch of sophistication. Its stylish design includes overlapping fronts that form a chic short loop, providing versatile styling options—wear it once or twice around the neck, tie it around the waist, or secure it with a shawl pin or brooch for a unique look. The jacket is carefully tailored for a flattering fit, being slightly shaped at the waist and designed to be wider at the hip than at the bust, ensuring a comfortable and fashionable silhouette.

Gauge: To achieve the desired fit, ensure your gauge is 24 stitches and 32 rows in stockinette stitch (st st) using 3.5 mm needles, which measures 10 cm square.

Notes: All components of this lovely jacket are worked back and forth, then sewn together at the end to create a polished finish. The loop sections are joined seamlessly for a tidy look. If you prefer a more integrated design, the neckband can be extended to the end of the shoulder. When working the neckband along the back neck, simply knit it on by picking up a stitch and working it together with the edge stitch of the neckband for a refined detail.

This versatile jacket pattern is suitable for knitters of varying skill levels and is perfect for those looking to create a unique, stylish piece that can be worn for multiple occasions. Download the free pattern today and get started on your next knitting project!
