Here's the new jacket with the improved raglan sleeve, new slightly raised neckline, side slits and button placket. My aim was to make a seamless knit, better fitting through the arm, shoulder and neck opening.
So satisfying to finally reach the desired shape.
The drape of this yarn combo comes from the diamond shape, which has a lot of bias and the silk in the mix adds to that drape. Yarns are Plymouth Boku, 95% wool, 5% silk and Knit Picks Gloss Dk, 70% Merino wool and 30% silk.
Buttons are oversized Mother of Pearl and offer a bit of sparkle to the jacket. 
The jacket measures 26" in length and 50" around, making it a nice loose fit over other garments. Available for $150 with free shipping. Email me at fibermania at g mail dot com.
