    Way to go on such a sharp looking jacket. Not only does is use the Yellow KK loom but it uses less yarn than most patterns. Love it!!

    Thanks for having something in a larger size…I have a 42 bust…and usually most of the patterns I see, probably wouldn’t fit. I’m trying to work on my other “bag” right now, but I’m going to keep this bookmarked…and try it shortly.

    Thanks for all of your hard work…it looks great!

    This is great! Many people out here are plus size- this would be great to wear with either pants, skirt or jeans!! How talented are YOU!! Wendy

    This is lovely Denise. I went to buy the pattern but the paypal account is my husband’s so I was not sure if the pattern would download to his computer rather than mine!

    He doesn’t have access to a printer and is likely to delete it if it goes to him. Do you know if the pattern would get sent to the computer ordering it or to the computer of the person paying for it?
