Swing Coat 150 Vermont Fiber Pattern

Swing Coat is a flared cool-weather coat knitting pattern from Vermont Fiber Designs (#150) by Sue McCain, with a silhouette that skims over the hips.

It's knit at a slightly tighter gauge than the yarn calls for, giving the fabric the extra body a coat needs. The body has a chevron pattern.
