Nadi Coat
This beautiful knitting pattern features a one-piece body design that is worked all the way up to the armholes. This innovative construction allows for seamless waist shaping through the center ribbing and bust shaping at the sides. Once you reach the armholes, the back and front sections are expertly divided and knit separately to create a refined shoulder design. After the shoulders are completed, the remaining stitches are joined to work a cozy hood. The top of the hood is skillfully shaped using short rows, extending the ribbed columns gracefully over the top of the head for added style and comfort.
A stunning woven cable pattern adorns the center back and the top of each sleeve cap, adding an elegant touch to this stylish garment. This design is perfect for those looking to create a chic and functional piece that combines modern elements with traditional knitting techniques.
