Real Gem Jacket — Seamless Self-Striping Showstopper Simple in stitch, stunning in effect — the Real Gem Jacket lets the self-striping yarn do the talking. Worked in garter stitch, the stripes run seamlessly right around the jacket for a bold, graphic impact that looks far more complex than it is to achieve. A true wardrobe hero that dresses up jeans or softens tailored workwear with equal ease. Pattern Notes This seamless jacket is worked in one piece up to the armholes, then the sleeves are worked in the round and joined to work the raglans, finishing with a slightly funnelled neckline. The continuous stripe effect is achieved through the seamless construction — a clever and satisfying technique for the advanced knitter. Recommended Yarn — DMC Brio XL We recommend knitting this pattern in DMC Brio XL, available at The Wool Shop. A chunky weight yarn with a beautiful self-striping effect, each ball is 100g / 155m — ideal for achieving the seamless stripe impact this jacket is designed for.
