Quito Jacket & Waistcoat Knitting Kit

Totally reversible and wonderfully flattering; accentuating the hour glass figure (even if you don't have one).  This jacket (pronounced Key-Toe) can be knitted with or without sleeves and the body is worked in one piece. Quito is a chic addition to any wardrobe - fabulous as outerwear for the autumn or spring, lovely and warm for layering during the winter.

Techniques used in this pattern are short row shaping, garter stitch and cabling.
