Soft collar, 3/4 length sleeve, mmm....comfy.
The back has a circle design, with a long ruffle.
Summer Crocheting Angst
It is hard to crochet when it’s hot out, especially a big fluffy project. I couldn’t stand the weight and added warmth of this sweater for more than a few rows, then I’d put it down and grab one of my (many) smaller projects. I think I completed 1 pair of baby socks, 2 pair of baby booties, another BICO (Baby its Cold Outside) baby cardigan, a hat for my son Tyler, a belt for myself, and several swatches for potential projects. Yep, all that in between this fluffy mass of warm yarn.
Well, finally she’s done. I probably won’t wear this for awhile. We were still swimming in the pool yesterday, it was almost 90 degrees in
The crochet class schedule is posted on my side bar, check it out. I’d love to see some of you in a class or two. 3 Kittens is an awesome yarn shop, super selection with an expert staff and fantastic owners. Did I mention the porch out front and a coffee shop a few doors down?
In January 2008, I will be speaking at a local church group about crochet and my involvement in Warm Up America. We are going to make 7” x 9” squares so we can assemble an American Flag Afghan to donate to the VA hospital in
Wow... that's some kind of warmth...lol.. Cute jacket.
ReplyDeleteThe jacket looks elegant and expensive!
ReplyDeleteI really love the modern shape of this sweater! Once the cold weather hits this will be put to good use!
ReplyDeleteTha jacket is cute and you could pull it off, however me-I would look like "some kind of fluffy in it"-LOL.
ReplyDeleteI wanna see the belt-silly I know, but I've been wanting to make myself a belt and need some ideas!
Yup, it's some kind of cool alright! I'm with ya on the summer crochet thing, too hot. That's why I dabbled in sewing. For now, the granny squares are enough. :o)
ReplyDeleteHi Pam. That jacket is so cute. At least you can wear it in the fall or winter because it's done and ready to be worn.
ReplyDeleteThe jacket looks so yummy and warm! It'll be great for when the temps start dipping! Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for the nice comments!
ReplyDeleteI'm holding the front together with a crochet hook, I thought that was an appropriate front closure. I saw the famous designer Gwen Blakley Kinsler do that with a shawl and I LOVED it!
This is sooooooo cute! Love your style, elegant and trendy. I was hoping you might offer a pattern for this. Please?!
