Nagisa is a stylish zip-up jacket.
The balance of the loose, cropped body and the two-tone color scheme are stylish.
This item is knitted from the bottom up. The front and back pieces are knitted together to the underarms while making pockets. At the underarms, the front pieces are separated into left and right, and the back piece is separated; each is knitted to the shoulders and then seamed. The sleeves are picked up from the body, and using garter stitch (back and forth knitting), the sleeve cap is formed and the sleeve is knitted to the cuff. The collar is also picked up from the neckline and shaped using garter stitch, then folded and sewn to the neckline. Finally, the zipper is sewn onto the front placket.
