Child's Felt Jacket FTCH13x Fiber Trends by BEV Galeskas

Child's Felt Jacket is a classic felted jacket knitting pattern by Bev Galeskas for Fiber Trends (CH13), for boys and girls, with turned-back cuffs for growing room.

The finished size depends on how much the jacket is felted, so the felting instructions need to be followed carefully. A plied yarn needs less blocking than a single.
