Only because I can't wait to show this off. I'm so happy when something comes out like you hoped!

More info will follow on Ravelry, and I'm guessing I'll have the pattern ready to test sometime in the next two weeks. I used 6 skeins of Jo Sharp DK Tweed.


And although it wasn't meant to be a tunic, I'm thinking it looks pretty good this way.


I made it so the neck could be a shorter, wider foldover - kind of 1960s style. Or it can be a cowl. Like I have it on now, 2009 style.


I added a fake button tab (aka no holes, just a flap), so there would be something fun along the bottom, and used two of my navy blue vintage buttons on it.


And I had a little fun with the shaping along the side, making the ribs increase and decrease where I do. It's a little hard to see in the photo below, but it's there!


I know I've hardly given you guys time to comment on my earlier post, but hey. Feel free to comment twice and make my day!
