Peyton Bomber Jacket Designer Knitting Pattern
Regular price $ 15.00Did you ever think you would knit a bomber jacket?
Complimentary StitchSaver™ Row Checker
This sporty collegiate design is a modern day take on the good ole fashioned bomber. Worked from the top down, it is as much fun to make as it is to wear. The back, left front and right front are knit from the neck to the underarm where they are joined and continued in one piece. The ribbed waist band is incorporated. The sleeves are knit from the neck to the to the wrist and ribbed cuffs are added. The sleeves and body raglan seams are sewn, then stitches are picked up around the neck for the collar. Underarm seams are sewn, the zipper is attached, and zipper facings sewn in place.
The result is a unique sweater that may bring back fond memories of college years, or garner a few compliments on your handiwork.
