Pattern Description from Cast On, November 2009-January 2010: “This Chain Link Jacket has the back and sleeves knitted in a textured Moss Rib pattern, with the front panels, sleeve border and collar done in a cabled pattern. Cables are created by the knotting of two extensions that are knitted separately. With the sleeves having almost the same width at the bottom and at the underarm, it gives for extra room. The Raglan seams give a finished and neat appearance to the body of the sweater.”
