This high-quality yarn will enhance the drape and feel of the finished jacket. **Needles Needed:** For this project, prepare a pair of 5.50mm knitting needles (UK 5, US 9) for the main body, as well as a pair of 7.00mm knitting needles (UK 2, US 10½) for the lace trim details. Additionally, a 7.00mm circular knitting needle (UK 2, US 10½) is required for an easy knitting experience. Don't forget a wool needle for sewing up the finished pieces! **Tension and Skill Level:** Achieve a tension of 17 stitches and 23 rows to 10cm (4 ins) using the 5.50mm needles over stocking stitch. To obtain the desired airy effect, this garment has been designed to be worked on larger needles with a looser tension than usually recommended, which allows for a stylish drape that is perfect for layering. **Plus Sizes Available:** For those seeking a larger fit, this stunning pattern is also available in plus sizes to accommodate bust measurements ranging from 120 cm to 150 cm (47¼ to 59 ins). **Pattern Difficulty:** This pattern is rated as intermediate, making it ideal for knitters with some experience looking to elevate their skills and create a fashionable, impressive piece.
