Named after the philosopher, poet and mathematician Omar Khatyam who worked on problems of Algebra, this is a long slightly oversized jacket with a cable collar and long cuffs. The remaining parts are knitted in stockinette stitch to make the cable stand out. A double belt in stockinette stitch highlights the beginning of the collar. KHat/beanieam is worked in pieces for the ultimate fit and made to be worn with the Laplace trousers as a set.
