MORNING DEVELOPMENTS TO COLOURMART COMPETITION JACKET

Slight miss understanding l think...

The jacket will be an original design using the basic baby hex jacket as a starting point along with the AF design BUT it will be an adult size...in fact it's for me!! hehe
and I'm blogging the design process for those who are interested in how a new design can develop and the many changes and options that happen

THIS MORNINGS DEVELOPMENTS....

Started the design again with a larger hook..wanted it slightly softer and less bulky and some slight adjustments to the pattern..
Very happy with the pattern now and it's working for me in the base colour of cream

BUT..
The body piece l made opened out made a wonderful cuff so another development and another option
MANY MORE WILL HAPPEN I'M SURE BEFORE THE FINAL JACKET DESIGN IS FINISHED
This is the part of designing l adore...

Thanks for all the wonderful comments
sorry l haven't time to comment on individual blogs this morning back to the old house to throw some paint around and make it ready for who ever moves in soon!!

Another sun filled day by the looks of it
Hugs xx
