I might be interested once the holidays are over. Elann has some yarn that I think would work well for this jacket. I do really like the design.

Hi Rebecca,

I am also interested. The swirl jacket really caught my eye and after Christmas would be a good time to start on a "for me" project... Keep me informed.....

just wanted to say - i really really like the jacket.... i'm not sure right now, though.


i keep telling myself that this coming year will be a year of design.........
it did jump to the top of my WIM, so maybe. i'll keep up with the details

I really love the sweater as well, but I want to make it out of acrylic, I'm not a wool person.........I'm too afraid of shrinkage!!

Just noticed this post - I've been wanting to do the same thing after the holidays. Count me in. And also count me a rookie - I don't really know how to participate in a crochet-a-long. Can someone fill me in?

[woolandflax]

Sure, it's not a complicated thing. Just post your intention to join us here on this thread then keep us updated on your progress. We are crocheting-along to cheer each other on, help answer questions, and see all the pretty completed projects! Happy to have you along. Looks like we will have a group after all. (oh and sidenote here, woolease is a wool/acrylic blend, it won't shrink, felt, or smell like sheep! lol. It's also cheaper than wool but softer and warmer than 100% acrylic) What colors are you all gonna use? I'm sticking with my current faves: pinks & browns. I'm getting LB Woolease in Mink, Mushroom, Dark Rose Heather, and Rose Heather.
