From the distributor.....
"The recognized master of handknit jackets, reveals the secrets of fit, fabric and details. Custom Handknit Jackets is
really three books in one: A tutorial on custom fitting the Master Jacket Pattern; a collection of 12 jacket silhouettes built on the Master Pattern in 10 standard sizes - 36" up to 52 / 54"(or on the
knitter's own Master Jacket Template) and 3 gauges; a portfolio of knit versions of the designer details that have made the Chanel Jacket a signature piece for over 50 years:
the fabrics, collars, pockets, finishes, and hand-stitched silk lining.
With the customized Master Pattern, Jean Frost demystifies fit: it is determined before a single stitch is knit. The process is easy to follow, using the simplest math and graph paper. Using real-body examples, Jean shows how to correct for narrow shoulders, long arms, short or long waist, large bust, and other common fitting problems. "
