Now Playing: Elizabeth Zimmermann Bog Jacket
Now Playing: Elizabeth Zimmermann Bog Jacket
I am knitting EZ's Bog Jacket, that is in her book Knitting Around chapter 5. I have put in 3 sets of short rows for shapping in the back of the jacket, and did some waist shaping of the jacket. I am almost to the underarm section of the jacket. At that point I will put in the Phoney side seams.
