| Top Down Swing Coat |
The coat is knit from the top, down, making it possible to try it on as you knit, adjusting the length of sleeves and body as desired. Once you get past the collar and set up the points of increases and decreases, this is a pretty straightforward knitting project. Thankfully, it is knit at a gauge of 3.5 stitches per inch, making my 11 days with this project an exercise in focus, but not a crippling marathon.
And yes, last night I cast on the coral cotton yarn, completely ignoring the other projects I've already started. This too is a bulkier yarn and I am convincing myself that I can finish it quickly and get back to my other projects before they miss me.
Love,
Kim

That is stunning. It's in my color, too! What happens to the coat now? :)
That a gorgeous looking sweater coat. That shade I think, always flatters everyone.
My husband likes for me to wear tops with collars. (Maybe because they remind him of golf shirts. Certainly not to hide some of my wattles!) This would be perfect.
I'd LOVE to be in your classes!
PS. Sweater is lovely. I like that it's shorter. I think that's a flattering look even for big butts.
