Notes

First I was afraid that this jacket would be boring to knit, but it wasn’t at all, on the contrary! It was fun to see how the peplum grew and got its shape with every knitted row.

I had a lot of difficulties with the neckband; I dont’t know how many times I ribbed and knitted it again until I was more or less satisfied with the result.

The jacket fits, it is perhaps a bit tight, but I am happy with it, so happy that I am knitting a second one in another colour and in another, a bit thicker cotton.
