Project #33. Janet Contiguous Jacket
Pdf download “The Contiguous method is a way of knitting the shoulder seams and sleeve caps of a garment from the top down…for a set-in sleeve look.” – Susie Myers. Instructions for this jacket are notes from me adapting the Contiguous Method by Susie Myers to make this specific jacket, that I think may be helpful to you 😊 . This is not a full pattern. It does not cover the collar, the front neckline, body shaping, & the finishings. It starts with how I calculated the number of stitches to cast on based on my measurement and my gauge, how many stitches I increased for the shoulder seam, and my sleeve cap & underarm shaping before the underarm cast on. All shaping instructions were arrived by my own trial & error, with the exception of the shoulder seam from Susie Myers. Difficulty Level : Intermediate. Sample size : XS/S. Yarn : Lion Brand Yarns Wool Ease. Needle: 40” Circular Needle in size US 8 or 5.00 mm. Gauge (in Garter St): 8.75 sts x 19 ro
