New FO, the jacket (picture)

My jacket is finished!



...and just in time to go with me to Amsterdam, Netherlands tomorrow morning! I am SO happy for my autumn holiday, we will stay private with friends!



I think the jacket is nice on, and very different from lying on the table. ...and I look like "I should"; my OWN age!LOL!

you next tuesday!AUD ;-))


I forgot to tell that I have changed the pattern on the arms, just because I thought it would be more "interesting" to knit. Here is the link to the pattern picture. It is originally made from cotton; mine is"warmer" plain wool and thinner yarn, so the result is very different, I think.

That's FABULOUS!

I prefer your version of the pattern as well, with a much more lively structure.

Have a nice travel!

Beautiful. I will imagine you in it enjoying Amsterdam. Have a great trip. Judy

What a beautiful sweater. I am sure that you will look and feel very special when you wear it. DA

Oh, Aud, that is just GORGEOUS!!!! I'm sure you will get lots of compliments when you are actually wearing it.

It's beautiful! I heard recently that pink is "the" color this fall so you will look very stylish wearing it in Amsterdam.

Beautiful sweater/jacket, Aud, and I love the colour! :o)

Have a wonderful holiday in Amsterdam!

Peace! Gemini

That's really pretty: I love the flower.

Hi Aud,

For some reason I don't have permission to view your lovely sweater. Do have a lovely vacation.

Hugs,

Nora

OK I was right then you have not gone as yet, Your jacket looks great and you will be the talk of the town...Have a great time, go for the herring at a stall and a plate of poffertjes, with lots of icing sugar on them or a huge cream puff @ Kwakkeboom, if they are still there. Enjoy

Aud, I just read in my last Handwerken Zonder Grenzen a Dutch textile magazine dat there is lots going on in the Textiel Museum in Tilburg. You do need to take a train to get there but it can be done in a day, maybe when you husband goes and watches Ajax socker team....LOL

There is also a great "handbag" museum in Amstelveen a suburb from Amsterdam Tassen museum Hendrikje, Zonnestein 1 amstelveen Tel: (020)- 64

That is lovely, Aud! Enjoy your trip!

Aud, it is just beautiful. I would love to see a picture of you wearing it (smile).

Nora, I wasn't allowed in either - maybe it's an AOL thing.

I couldn't get in through on safari but was able to do it on my older internet explorer. I think it was simply a different server - maybe due to a security system for the server.
