Taken from the new Knitted Jackets book by Cheryl Oberle: "During the Edo period in Japan (1603 to 1868), art and culture flourished. Haiku poetry was born, focusing on themes of simplicity and beauty found in everyday life. The style of the knitted lace Edo is based on the traditionally simple Japanese hanten jacket".
The pattern is one of 20 new designs in the book Knitted Jackets. We have substituted the yarn in the book for the new Wool Classica.
