Too many hand-knitted garments fit too closely to the figure for complete smartness. This lumber-jacket in stocking stitch is roomy and smart with its neat midriff, taking inches off the waistline, and full sleeves fitted to the wrist on a cuff, plus two big pockets. Dashing and fit for all outdoor sports, but equally useful and cosy for wearing indoors.
