Notes

Made from three separate pieces, including my first plaid and my first houndstooth, both in Lana d’oro, plus a plain purple in 220. All were done using the 8 dent heddle. Lining is store bought twill.

To make it sturdy, I used medium weight fusible interfacing on each piece, including the lining.

Gifted to my sister.
