Sweatshirt Jacket for Women
About the Design: This stylish women’s jacket is expertly crafted with just one strand of bulky yarn, making it both warm and lightweight, a perfect alternative to the heavier original men’s jackets. While this pattern does not feature a hood, it does include a chic fold-over ribbed collar that adds an elegant touch. The design retains classic elements such as the upper body patterning, functional zipper closure, and slanted pockets, all of which give it the distinctive look of a sweatshirt. Sampled in a versatile wear-with-everything charcoal grey, the jacket can be customized in a variety of vibrant colors from Lamb’s Pride Bulky yarn to add some flair to your wardrobe. This pattern is available in five sizes for greater fit flexibility, ensuring that every knitter can create their perfect jacket!
