The Dagmar Jacket Junior is worked from the top down in cable and texture patterns. First the back yoke is worked flat, back and forth. Then each shoulder is worked separately, from stitches that are picked up and knitted along the top of the back yoke. The fronts and back yoke are joined at the underarms to form the body, which is worked back and forth on a circular needle. The sleeves are worked from stitches that are picked up and knitted around the armholes. At the end, plackets are worked from stitches that are picked up and knitted along the front edges and along the neck. The kit includes the yarn.
