It&#8217;s sort of a cross between a blazer and a cardigan, and it showcases special fabrics very nicely. I love the stand-up collar, the cut-away silhouette, and the little notch at the center-back hem. <\/p>\n<p>Because it has an underarm\/sleeve gusset you get a nice fit and ease of movement, and we included cup sizes with an added dart for C and D cups to help you with the fit even more. This style is designed to be cropped to the waist, but of course you can add length if you want. And you&#8217;re going to flip when you see what all our testers and the Advisors Circle did with this style!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-76160 size-large\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-03-760x555.jpg\" alt=\"Liesl + Co Yanaka Jacket sewing pattern images\" width=\"760\" height=\"555\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-03-760x555.jpg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-03-500x365.jpg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-03-768x561.jpg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-03-1240x649.jpg 1240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/DSC08155.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-76162 size-large\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/DSC08155-760x508.jpg\" alt=\"Liesl + Co Yanaka Jacket sewing pattern images\" width=\"760\" height=\"508\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/DSC08155-760x508.jpg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/DSC08155-500x334.jpg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/DSC08155-768x513.jpg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/DSC08155-1200x649.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-76163 size-large\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-04-760x555.jpg\" alt=\"Liesl + Co Yanaka Jacket sewing pattern images\" width=\"760\" height=\"555\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-04-760x555.jpg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-04-500x365.jpg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-04-768x561.jpg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-04-1240x649.jpg 1240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/DSC08125.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-76161 size-large\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/DSC08125-760x508.jpg\" alt=\"Liesl + Co Yanaka Jacket sewing pattern images\" width=\"760\" height=\"508\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/DSC08125-760x508.jpg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/DSC08125-500x334.jpg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/DSC08125-768x513.jpg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/DSC08125-1200x649.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-76159 size-large\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-02-760x555.jpg\" alt=\"Liesl + Co Yanaka Jacket sewing pattern images\" width=\"760\" height=\"555\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-02-760x555.jpg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-02-500x365.jpg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-02-768x561.jpg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/yanaka-02-1240x649.jpg 1240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a little video introduction to the pattern as well.<\/p>\n<div class=\"flex-video youtu.be\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Introducing the Liesl + Co.
