Chunky bomber jacket is a thick and short jacket worked in brioche stitch, with front bands worked on thinner needles with single thread. This combination of needle size and knitting technique creates a wonderful effect, with the rustic brioche stitch and the delicate stockinette stitch. Chunky bomber jacket is worked back and forth in brioche stitch with double thread. Brioche stitch is stretchy and moves nicely when worn. The front bands in stockinette stitch create a perfectly fitted frame and give the jacket a neat finish.

Colour:
The pictured jacket is worked in Hip Wool «Avocado Sandwich» + «Cookie dough light brown».

Size guide:
This jacket is designed to be worn with approx. 25 cm positive ease (25 cm larger than your bust measurements).
