Directions:
The Zipper Jacket is worked from the top down. First the back yoke is worked, then the right and left front yoke. Before the body is finished, double-knitted front edges are worked on the fronts of the yoke and the stitches from these are joined with the body. The double-knitted front edges look like stockinette stitch from both the right side and wrong side. The jacket is closed down at the front with a zipper and a facing is worked for the zipper before it is sewn in.
The sleeves are worked in the round from stitches that are picked up and knitted along the armholes. At the end, the afterthought pockets are worked from stitches that are picked up along the fronts of the jacket.
Please Note:
The price of the yarn kit is calculated based on the amount of yarn included, which is the amount we have used to knit the design according to the above measurements. Should you need more yarn, additional yarn can be purchased at regular prices by placing an order and state lot number in the comment box at checkout. All designs have been thoroughly calculated and tested.

ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- When you buy a kit for ALL designs from PetiteKnit's, you will receive a printed, pattern together with your yarn, as we are unfortunately not allowed to sell Petite Knits' patterns digitally.
- When you buy a kit for a design from selected books (e.g. Helga Isager), you sometimes have to buy the book separately, in cases where the patterns are not released to be sold separately. It will always be clearly described in the product title, with for example "xx kit, excluding pattern", when the pattern is not included.
- All patterns from Isager are delivered as a printed pattern, as we do not have access to sell these digitally. You will receive your pattern along with your yarn shipment.
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.
