Arundel jacket

This neat, fitted short-sleeved blazer uses an elegant laddered lace pattern at the hem. It’s worked in one piece to the underarm, while the sleeves are also worked in the round, on DPNs or circulars using Magic Loop. “The inspiration for this top was a worn-out blazer,” says designer Kyoko Nakayoshi. “I used the laddered lace pattern to add a vintage look and a blazer collar in a contrasting colour.”

This pattern is designed to fit eight UK dress sizes, from 8 (to fit bust 81cm) to 22 (to fit bust 117cm). You'll find a full list of knitting abbreviations here.
