v-allknit

Started this one in Jan this year, may be just a week back. I have never ever used up so much yarn so fast and so quick.

here i have made this from DK wool i had bought in Shimla about 4-5 yrs ago, to make a throw, but things didn't work out so now i am using this yarn( read stash ) to make this jacket. used three strings for the body and an extra fur / knobby fur string for the border. In the pattern they have given garter stitch but i preferred moss stitch border and st st body






here is the right front. this is one piece i will never forget,

started as left front, didn't increase as advised in pattern,

frogged

knitted again,

and instead of left front increase .... made increases for right side,

didn't place button holes,

frogged

knitted again,

didn't like the st st on the upper part as it would show wrong side when collar is made

frogged again .....

knitting again and here is what it looks like..... finally the way it should turn out :)
