This jacket is worked from the top down in a raglan style using stockinette stitch with garter stitch finishing on the collar, facings & cuffs. The use of different increases being the most difficult part of this jacket would make me rate it fairly easy, a great 1st sweater for a beginner looking to challenge themselves. It’s really more a cape than a jacket since the sleeves don’t separate from the body until the garter stitch border though the way the sleeves are shaped and the way they hang can give the illusion of being separate.
