NOTES Jacket is made in a mesh patt in one piece starting from back hem and adding extension ch to form the Sleeves. The Body and Sleeves are continued as one to the shoulders when the piece is divided to form the Left and Right Fronts. Each Front and Sleeve is continued as one until the underarm seam when only stitches for the Front are worked to the hem. The weaving is worked in lengths of chain and slip stitch onto the base grid formed by the mesh patt. Seams are joined and edging is worked onto Cuffs and Body.
