About the pattern
Mathilda Jacket is knit from the top down in a lace structure, featuring raglan increases.
The neckline is knit in ribbing and folded double. The sleeves are knit in structure with decreases, so the pattern will not add up all over the sleeves. Finally, stitches are picked up for the button band. If you don’t want to use mohair yarn, I recommend Alpaca 1 from Isager.
Remember to knit a swatch that you wash and steam before starting. The texture may expand after washing and steaming.
