Letters From the Open Road - a bespoke and sophisticated jacket knitting pattern

Whether you lean towards sassy athleisure or moto-jacket sophisticated, Letters from the Open Road will absolutely showcase your talents. As a friend of mine put it, “that’s a bit of a flex, then, isn’t it?” And YES! it definitely is.

This bespoke jacket is packed with thoughtful details: more ease in the front than the back, sewn tubular bind-offs, and a self-facing hem and collar. The allover seersucker stitch adds texture and warmth, elevated by welted zipper plackets worked in slipped stitches. This pattern includes step-by-step instructions for zipper installation, including a video and a zipper supplement with lots of photos.
