Brooklyn

Introducing Brooklyn, a beautifully crafted Garter stitch “jacket” that seamlessly blends style and comfort, inspired by one of my favorite cities, Brooklyn. This cropped, double-breasted design is meticulously worked flat from the top down, allowing you the freedom to customize the length of both the bodice and sleeves to suit your personal style. The design features easy-to-follow instructions that are perfect for knitters of all skill levels.

At the neckline, stitches are skillfully picked up to create a unique collar, with short rows utilized to add gentle shaping at the back. Whether you choose to wear the collar folded over for a relaxed look or upright for a bit more structure, this versatile jacket is sure to impress. The design incorporates two columns of three stylish buttons that enclose the overlapping front, with spacing that gradually decreases as you move toward the hem. An additional button at the neckline allows you to close up that last bit, providing additional warmth and style when desired.

The sleeves are expertly seamed and set in for a polished finish, ensuring that the jacket is as functional as it is fashionable. This pattern is crafted to be engaging and enjoyable, making it the perfect project for your next knitting adventure.

Inside the comprehensive 14-page PDF, you'll find detailed pattern instructions, high-quality photographs, user-friendly assembly diagrams, and clear schematics. To further enhance your knitting experience, we’ve included a handy row tracking grid to help manage at-the-same-time instructions, along with instructional links and photo tutorials to guide you through the sleeve and cap seaming process. Additionally, you’ll find definitions for all relevant abbreviations to ensure a smooth knitting experience. Whether you're an experienced knitter or just starting out, the Brooklyn jacket pattern is a must-have addition to your collection!
