This stylish jacket was worn by the high society of the late 1920s and early 1930s but has its origins in the late 19th century. In England, where house parties were the rule, one always had to be properly dressed. After the ladies retired, the gentlemen adjourned to the billiard or smoking room for brandy and good cigars. Because they did not want to ruin their finely tailored dress coats, the smoking jacket was born.
Folkwear offers two versions of Le Smoking Jacket, both sized for men and women. One has softly quilted lapel and cuffs, accomplished with a simple technique that does not require extra quilting materials. The other versions offer contrasting lapel, cuffs, sash, and pocket bands. Also included are knitting instructions for a slinky tank top, sized for women. Knit in a stockinette stitch, it has thin straps and a scoop neck.
Suggested fabrics: Medium-weight fabrics such as velvet, velveteen, brocade, corduroy, crepe, silk jacquard.
Notions:
1 3/8 yard of 45" wide flannel for interlining, 1 yard light to medium weight interfacing, optional 1 yard of 1/2" wide doublefold bias tape for armhole finish.
