Jaunty Jacket Reviewed by jane kiniry on 2009-09-23
I made this jacket for my daughter. It was the 1st time that I attempted to make a jacket & I was a frightened by the prospect. It turned out perfectly. & fit her to a T which was quite an accomplishment since she lives 3000 miles away from me in Ca. It was the perfect "welcome back to visit" gift. I could not be happier & more proud of this beautiful sweater
I made it in the Edwardian Homespun yarn finished off with an antique button.
