Totally modular.  I wove rectangles then wove a band in shadow weave using one shuttle instead of two.  The band was gold and red purple.  I used it to add four inches in the back of the jacket for neck area and for the sleeves. I assembled the jacket using single crochet and then crocheted edgings

Love it!

Beautiful jacket.  I particularily liked that you crocheted the pieces together.  That is something I have been mulling over in my head.  It works and works beautifully!
