Your vest/jacket is beautiful. I know how to crochet, but my problem is, I do not understand the patterns. What stitch are you using? Is it SC or DC? Thanks, Sheila <em>Zontee says: Hi Sheila, the pattern stitch is neither SC or DC.

Is it supposed to feel like it's gonna fall off? :) Anyway, gonna do the collar next. Been thinking about those buttons, though. Might only do one at the top. I'm not exactly a small person and don't think it would look right buttoned over my belly. But, with a button up top, it might make it feel more like it's staying put. Or, maybe the collar does that. As soon as I'm completely finished, I will post a pic on flickr or somewhere. Wish me luck! It is nice and warm; just what is needed here in WV where temps have plummeted and they are calling for snow. Snow in April! Almost unheard of around here.

I do wish it were a bit more flattering but at least it mostly fits. I finished over the weekend and posted it in the customer gallery.

I am also having a problem with the buttons. I think my crocheting is much tighter than what yours appears to be. I will try to make them with a smaller hook. This one will go to my daughter, and I am going to make one for myself but in a larger size. Thanks so much for such a fun project, and such a cute jacket. This was my first Crochet Along, and I have enjoyed being aprt of a project that so many are doing at the same time. Whenever I have told people about this they think it is so unique. Thanks!!!
