Jacket

Title (Dublin Core): Jacket
Description (Dublin Core): This loose fitting jacket was constructed from separated panels of knitting joined together including the sleeves. The floral patterns in stocking stitch and purl were influenced by contemporary woven tapestry designs. Like the previous example, the combination of knit and purl stitches create a very interesting hem of the basket weave stitch. The combination of faded coral colored and gold silks was common in England with a paper of 1712 reporting the theft of “a green silk knit waistcoat with gold and silver flowers all over it.” (Victoria and Albert Museum)
