Directions:
Jacket is worked sideways with short rows as one piece. Start from the center of the front, then left sleeve, back, right sleeve, right half of the front. The jacket on the picture was made from the self-striping yarn. It is possible to make it from two contrasting color yarns: one - garter stitch, another - stocking stitch, which will create stripes as it is done in the Striped One-Piece Noro Yarn Sweater. Short rows are counted as full rows.
