Frontier Blues Jacket - done!

I decided to wear it today - no one else was awake to take the pic. I made the sleeves a little longer and a little narrower, and finished with barely half a ball left, phew. For awhile there I thought I was going to have to order one more ball of the Louisa Harding Flueris yarn, but managed to find this one in my zuma bag where I had forgotten it.

It sure is easy to make a one piece sweater. Just attach those arms and you are almost done. The trim is very similar to the one in the pattern, but mine does not have red on the edges. Pretty good find for Alaska. I went to Seams like home fabrics, but had to find the giant snap at Joanne's.
