I am sooo buying that pattern!! I couldn't believe it went to pattern only! Yee haw!

[Pumpkinmouse]

that is really nice will have to look into getting that also

[LizaKaye]

I got my pattern last week, and finished my jacket this morning, I'm loving it! I used sugar and cream cotton rather than the wool ease, as I just feel more comfortable in cotton.

Really easy pattern to follow.

[MsSuzKelly]

oh, that's good to know Lisa! Thanks for the tip!! So glad to hear it's simple! Ok I am ordering.

Please show us a picture.

[MsSuzKelly]

:yes Oh yeah, Lisa.......Please do show a pic if you can!!!!!!!

[LizaKaye]

ewwwwww, I've never posted a pic before but I'll give it a try and take a pic tomorrow and hopefully have it on by tomorrow evening-but don't hold your breath.......lol

[MsSuzKelly]

what color cotton did you use???? I sure would like to see it!!

 

you could just take a pic of it on a hanger if you dont want to photograph yourself

[LizaKaye]

I used the S & C peppercorn ombre, took 2 FULL cones to complete.

I will do my best to take a pic tomorrow-ON the hanger ;-)

i love that sweater, with the sugar and cream cotton, did it make the sweater heavy? I would like to make one also and i like the idea of the cotton

[LizaKaye]

That was the only drawback I could see, it is a little heavy, BUT being that I am in the throes of hot flashes at any given moment, even the thought of a wool blend makes me too warm.

[Kbear]

I'm going to get this also!!

[Zaraliz]

I was very excited, until I saw it costs as much in postage as the pattern costs. Over $15 US, which in Canadian is probably well over $20. However, looking at the photos I think I could follow those schematics from Mrs Who (?)and wing it. Zaraliz

I am really excited this pattern looks great and if it is easy would make a great gift

[LizaKaye]

 

 

Ok Ladies, this is as good as I can do, I had two more but for the life of me I can't get them to downsize. One was of me wearing the jacket-from the back so you could see how it kind of cups in at your bottom.

It makes me look huge from the back, and I made the regular size that fits s-xl.

[Ramburn]

Lisa, Your jacket looks lovely. I ordered the pattern last night.

[LizaKaye]

Thank you, it was fun to make.........but it's really hard to see the detail with that variegated yarn.

[MsSuzKelly]

oooh that is pretty! Thanks for posting the pic!! I JUST ordered mine! Can't wait

[nancycg56]

I really like that ~I may have to order the pattern for myself
