From the pattern: There are no seams at the sides of this asymmetric jacket, just one square knit next to another. Begin it all with a long I-cord, from which stitches for the first row of squares are picked up. Raglan armholes that follow the diagonal lines of the body are filled in with sleeves knit in garter-stitch stripes.
