My jacket



There will be a picture eventually of the jacket on me, but this will have to do for now. This is it, finished, minus buttons, but I wanted to wash it. It is drying now, the cord is for the fan. I don't reccomend this, really totally unsafe, but the picture was taken standing on the toliet and Gwen was wrapped on me:) But the amazing thing was that I finished in all my ends yesterday. Thank you Stephanie, without you the sweater would have been thrown in a pile somewhere once I saw how the shoulder was. It didn't look pretty. Stephanie swears by blocking, lets hope I am doing it right.

It is in interweave knits, the purple one, tilted duster, http://www.interweaveknits.com/
I had to make the arms smaller, did math actually:) It is shorter cuz I didn't want to be sitting on it and I actually had to make the collar smaller too because if not it would have been a turtle neck. Sometimes it sucks being short. It took me about 2 weeks.
And it is still drying
