AuntieShel said... Your jacket is fabulous and I say jacket definitively!! Nothing remotely sweatshirt about it, except hopefully for the comfort in wearing. Loved all your extras, especially the pockets. 1/19/09 1:47 PM

Athene said... I love your jacket - I especially like the full sleeves - to change to the fuller sleeves did you slit and spread the pattern in a few areas around the sleeve or did you just widen the sleeve pattern in one area to get the effect? 1/19/09 10:55 PM
Patti B said... Athene, I just laid the pattern piece on the doubled fabric and added enough on each side to make it a fairly straight sleeve. My sleeves are 18 inches in circumference at the hem. 1/20/09 0:46 AM
Athene said... Thank you so much Patti for that sleeve information. I have been struggling to find a wide sleeve sweater knit pattern for some time - yet I have so many already that I like but the sleeves are narrow and/or tapered - this will help me a lot. 1/20/09 3:26 AM

cherylzone said... I wondered how this would look in "reality". It looks GREAT. and...the tip about the sleeve length...very helpful. You did a beautiful job, and your interpretation is very creative. I'm ready to make this. Thanks! 1/29/09 1:32 AM
KarmenG said... WOW! I agree this pattern is a hidden gem.
After seeing your beautiful rendition I am putting this one on my To Do list. Christine Jonson patterns suit you well. 2/22/09 7:06 AM
