The Oriental Jacket is the jewel in the crown of knitting.  A loose fitting long jacket, it is composed of squares in three different sizes with random colour distribution.  The quilt-like squares are knit onto each other horizontally and vertically as required so the entire jacket is knit as one piece simply using a pair of 3mm needles!
