It’s a great jacket for your weekend activities.

Worked from the bottom up in one piece, then split at the armhole shaping into back and front parts. Sleeves worked flat and sew in.

The “brick” pattern makes for an entertaining knit and the mosaic technique chest band gives it a more complicated look then it really is.

When you use the mosaic color technique, you actually only work with one color per row and slip the other colored stitches. So, no stranding involved at all!

The mosaic pattern is charted.

V-neck shaping starts above patterned chest band.

Chart correction: On chart Rows 23 and 24, and 27 and 28, the 10th and 11th symbol in from the right side of the chart should be the symbol for “k on RS, p on WS with MC.”
