The double breasted jacket, mentioned in an earlier post, is finished!
This Patons pattern - with a couple of slight alterations - was relatively quick to knit in a garter stitch pattern, it has confetti spotted wool in hot pink, blue, yellow and white... and just to make it a little different the eight (yes 8!) buttons are alternating matching hot pink and yellow buttons with a shank... these give the advantage of not pulling the knit as it is buttoned - offering a little breathing space!
It's hard to tell the jacket is knitted in garter stitch.. it feels like a rather dense, very soft, very fluffy fabric.
