The latest jacket is now finished. This one is for Kathleen P. and is a mix of Plymouth Kudo, : 55% cotton, 40% rayon, 5% silk and Cascade Avalon, 50% Cotton, 50% Acrylic. The mannequin makes it so easy to see the knit without the usual distracting model, me.
Love the orange in this one Melody. By the way I have been wearing my prototype jacket from you and boy have I been told so many times how beautiful, did I knit this myself and if not where can they buy one!!!

ReplyDeleteThe colors for this jacket are stunning! What a beautiful combination, blue and orange...
ReplyDeleteThe sweater drapes beautifully on the mannequin, but it doesn't have your personality. Love the colors. Judith P.
ReplyDeletelove love love it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I do have one question. Are you blocking these after you've finished knitting or does the knit stitch keep the shape well enough?
ReplyDeleteJean, since this is not wool, I am using a press cloth and steaming the piece, from the inside. It works great and is really necessary.

This is a wonderful looking jacket Melody. Did you knit in squares for the body or in one as normal? Do you have the pattern? Many tHanks Fran
