I have made a start on my
Christmas jacket. Generally I am not
keen on Christmas jumpers – but we are encouraged to wear one at work during
December – so I thought I would have a go at making one. Rather than doing something silly – I thought
I would knit the Patricia Werner Mola Jacket pattern which I used earlier in
the year as inspiration for my English Adventure throws.
These shapes are much smaller
than those I used for the throws. I
thought the sparkly yarn was ideal to create a kind of Christmas bauble
effect. I am mainly using Stylecraft
Cabaret which is a DK yarn with a plain green for the background colour. I am using oddments of other sparkly yarns
for the linking pieces.
So far I have completed most of
the pieces for the back of the jacket.
It may be some days before I get on to the fronts as I have been asked to knit some more tea cosies.
