Middle School Girl's Jacket (Update)

Hand Knitted by Gena Greene

The color on this browser is just a little more grey than the sweater is in real life. It's two shades of a color most women would describe as a greyish green rather than a greenish grey...recommended for drawing attention to green-grey-blue "Irish" eyes.

Size: Girl's size 12 or petite woman's size--30-32" bust, 5'-5'4"

Material: Acrylic

Care: Machine wash and dry

Credits: "This is a version of a girl's jacket shown in Alice Starmore's rare classic, Children's Knitting from Many Lands. Differences in the finished look were created by using a different yarn. Acrylic doesn't 'block' flat, so this version flares slightly below the V-shaped yoke."

Click here to buy the jacket for $18 + $5 shipping. If you want to buy Children's Knitting from Many Lands, currently it's available only for collectors' prices: $35 + $5 shipping includes a $4 payment to Alice Starmore.

(Update: It's been sold.)
