I wouldn’t go so far as to say this pattern is not recommended, but be careful when you’re buying it. I found that it ran small; the 38 I ordered was more like a 36. Read the directions very carefully before putting together the lining and the jacket; the drawing is rather scanty. Other than that, the jacket went together very well, everything fit together and the finished product was very nice. In the attached image, Steve is wearing the jacket that Rachel made.
