This jacket is the most complicated thing I’ve ever done and it cost me lots of nerves. Again and again something went wrong. Lost stitches, forgot the hem of the frontpart, when I finished it already the second time, needles were rotted all of a sudden and lots more. But anyway…it’s finished now and that feels sooooo good.
The Material is mainly 100% wool.
Knitted with tension 2/2 II, ribber-colorchanger,
2013-05-19 finished :-) after 3 frontparts, 3 sleeves, 4 pockethems, 3 collars and twice the hems of the frontpart.
2013-05-11 finally started knitting and finished the back. Armholes formed, but neck and shoulders will be cut&sew
