Striped Jacket

[Alpedford]

I was so inspired by a Jacket that Tara made here that I had to make one for my daughter. Here are the links to the pics. I made up a pattern as I went. It's approx. a girl's 7/8. Thanks for the inspiration Tara.

That's great and you DD is beautiful,just love her smile! What yarn did you use? I really like the color combo.

The sweater is great, but your daughter--she could be my niece's twin! If my mom hadn't been in the delivery room with sis and her (now ex-) hubby, I'd think there was some funny stuff that went on. She's beautiful! What a smile! Patty
