B/W jacket (houndstooth a.k.a. pied-de-poule variation)
I had found the picture and instructions of a jacket with some sort of houndstooth pattern but, as usually, I felt it could be improved, i.e. adapted to my taste and pre
ferences. The shape is already different, I knitted longer sleeves (sort of 3/4) and I'm not knitting fake pockets. I didn't either knit the ribbing as it's indicated but I crocheted most of it instead.
It seems that I can't really follow any instructions completely since I tend to find something worth being improved.
I'm still amazed about how little yarn I needed! I used 1 yarn ball of each colour (100g) and some extra
yarn ...but much less than half a yarn ball. By the way, I used 5mm needles.
I'm not
sure but I
might knit a pair of pockets (same pattern, rib
bed in black).
