What a fabulous jacket!! I love this. I've always wanted to make a jacket out of a throw or blanket--as you point out, sometimes the "fabric" is better than what's available in a fabric store. Thanks for sharing.

Just beautiful ! Way cool recycling project. I have this pattern too-and never thought of doing it in a wool-looks great.

Beautiful jacket, you made great use of the fabric from your throw. I love all the detailing in the back of the jacket.

I love your jacket and thanks for the very timely review - have this pattern but been put off by the stiff look on the envelope - with yours to inspire me will now use a much softer fabric as this will suit me much better.

That is one cool looking jacket. You'd never know it came from a throw! Great job!

The jacket is very, very pretty and stylish too. I don't think I'd stop wearing it even though the fashion scene changes. It's beautiful with the layout that you came up with, and from a lap throw at that. Wear it as long as you enjoy it!
