I discovered this beautiful Japanse Lace pattern in a stich manual. I have designed a vintage a-line jacket in cream colored Amoretto, a lovely mixture of alpaca and cotton which emphasises the delicate lace pattern. The long puffed sleeves adorn your hands.

Japanese Lace Jacket is available as a downloadable pdf only in English.
Errata is for the printed Norwegian pattern.
