To celebrate ten years of publication, Sandi Prosser has released an updated version of her classic Weekend Jacket. This new jacket is even easier to knit with subtle changes in the construction, while maintaining the ease of styling and elegance of the original. The main body is also worked from side-to-side to maximize the effect of the variegated yarn. A simple shawl collar, worked as a continuation of the fronts and seamed at the center back, refreshes the classic design. Pattern includes instructions for both a short and long (shown) version.
