Basix 106 Boston Top-Down Hooded Coat PDF

Winters in Boston are cold and windy, and the Boston Top-Down Hooded Coat from Basix is the perfect survival gear. It’s got a roomy hood which blocks the elements, but looks great when not in use. The yarn used recommends a gauge of 3.5 stitches to the inch, but you can knit it slightly tighter (3.75 stitches) to give it a more dense fabric; keep this in mind if you’re planning on substituting.
