Started with a need to find out more about Mosaic Knitting, knitted one square then another. Its been a long haul but I am pleased with the result. Now will I be brave enough to wear it?
First few rows done. August 2009.
Front and sleeve edging, UK double USA single crochet and Crocodile Stitch. Check out Mikey on The Crochet Crowd on You Tube for a demo.
Being confined with this infection has had a positive outcome. Annoyingly it was back to the Drs and I'm on a second dose of antibiotics.
So I have plenty of time to check out all the other clever crafters on Handmade Monday.
Such amazing colours.

Hope you get better very soon.
ReplyDeleteYour jacket looks amazing. Think it will be tough to find a colour that isn't in there.
Wow! That is truly amazing. Great colours and so much detail! It reminds me of Kaffe Fassett.
ReplyDeleteIt's fantastic! It's so good to finish things!! I find it hard to wear things I've made sometimes if they are unusual and/or bright - I don't wear my pixie coat very often!
ReplyDeleteWow, love your jacket. All those different colours amazing. I hope you do wear it after all that work. I wish you well and that you feel better very soon.
ReplyDeleteWow! That's certainly bright! Amazing work .
ReplyDeleteWow. I love it. You really must wear it. People may call you Joseph though, in your dreamcoat.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing project! Well done for completing it, it must have taken many hours of work. You should wear it with pride :) x
ReplyDeleteWow! That's a beautiful creation. You really must wear it, as it would be such a shame for it to live in a wardrobe :-)
ReplyDeleteWOW !!! What a stunning jacket. The colours are amazing. Don't even think about hiding it away in the wardrobe - you have got to wear it.
ReplyDeleteKeep taking the tablets.... xx
It's a lovely coat - and I've just been humming the coat of many colours song from Joseph too..."I look handsome, I look smart, I am a walking work of art" It's far to beautiful to be left in a cupboard or drawer, it definitely needs wearing.
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful colours, after all that effort you must wear it:) hope you feel better soon, Vicky
ReplyDeleteLike Ginx and Lucy the coat of many colours was in my mind as I looked at the pictures! Looks wonderful, and would brighten up any day :)
