What a lovely jacket - can hardly believe this is from a knit. Will definitely have to try this soon especially since knits are so popular now.

The jacket in the picture looks perfectly tailored. I was very surprised when I read through the review and saw what fabric you had used and how simple it was to construct. Very helpful information.

Truly beautiful!! I, too, was surprised by the fabric--the jacket looks like a very well-tailored wool. Very useful information, too.

Thank you so much for your detailed review. On first look, I thought the jacket was wool! What a beautiful piece! Also thank you for your observation that the curved front is only a drawing flaw, I have this pattern, but didn't want the curved front. Perfect!

That looks absolutely wonderful. Thanks for the idea of making this up in a sweatshirt fleece - never would have thought of it myself.

That's sweatshirt knit?!? Wow. Looks fantastic in a tailored garment. Thanks for the detailed info.

Great looking jacket. My first thought seeing photo is gray flannel wool. Fleece?! Amazing.

Looks like the sort of jacket you'll be glad you made and wear a lot. Excellent review.
