A Swagger Coat pattern is a “coat ideal for the country tramp, as it combines cosiness with just the right length” is how 1934 pattern writers described the aptly named Swagger Coat. While it might seem a bit dressy these days to wear for a country ramble, it is undoubtedly a statement piece that will put a swagger in your walk, a swing in your step, a flash of pizazz in your day, wherever you choose to wear it.
The Swagger Coat is knit in pieces from the bottom up in a wide broken rib to create dramatic vertical bands. The stitch pattern repeats on the pockets, which are turned 90 degrees before being sewn onto the coat. The garter stitch collar is also worked separately before being attached.
A Swagger Coat is knitted using [productlink: Bluem Worsted = bluem-worsted :productlink], a worsted or aran weight yarn, worsted spun, with a honey-like softness and a delightful, lustrous finish. Shown here in
shade [productlink: Serge de Nimes = bluem-worsted-serge-de-nimes :productlink].
Our model Theodora is shown wearing the first size 76-81cm (30-32in).
The pattern includes instructions for eight sizes to fit chest measurements between 76cm (30in) and 152cm (60in) and contains clear written instructions plus a comprehensive schematic diagram and sizing chart.
