Noro Double Breasted Jacket
Project Overview
The Noro Double Breasted Jacket is a sophisticated knitted garment designed by Jenny Watson, featured in the City Girl collection by Noro. This jacket showcases classic tailoring with a contemporary knitting approach, making it an ideal project for knitters seeking to create a polished, wearable piece with structured shaping and professional finishing.
What Is Being Made
This pattern produces a double breasted jacket—a tailored outerwear piece characterized by overlapping front panels and two parallel columns of buttons. The double breasted construction creates a formal, elegant silhouette suitable for layering over dresses, blouses, or casual wear. The jacket is designed as a complete garment with shaping throughout the body, sleeves, and neckline.
Knitting Techniques
The Noro Double Breasted Jacket employs fundamental knitting construction methods to achieve its structured shape. The pattern utilizes:
- Increases and decreases for waist shaping and armhole definition
- Sleeve cap shaping for proper fit and mobility
- Neckline shaping to frame the garment opening
- Button band construction for the double breasted front closure
- Seaming techniques to join body and sleeve pieces into a finished garment
Stitches Used
The pattern incorporates essential knitting stitches to create texture and structure. While specific stitch patterns are detailed within the full instructions, the jacket employs standard knit and purl combinations that form the foundation of classic knitwear construction, allowing the yarn's natural color variations and qualities to be the focal point of the finished piece.
Materials
This Noro design is worked with Noro yarn, known for its distinctive multi-colored striping and high-quality fiber blends. The pattern requires appropriate knitting needles sized according to gauge specifications and the selected yarn weight. Measurements and gauge information are provided as guidelines within the pattern to ensure proper fit and drape of the finished jacket.
This pattern is intended for personal use only and is published by Knitting Fever, Inc. (KFI).
