Crochet jacket - The Beginning!

I've finally started to crochet the jacket that was meant as a present to one of my friends. The yarn I'm using is Dale Vipe - Mørk lilla(Dark purple).

It's a yarn made of Egyptian mercerised cotton. Very nice quality with a beautiful shine and it's very soft and smooth. For the jacket I'm crocheting I'm using triple thickness, this gives me a heavy and almost tweed like structure. Perfect for a Chanel inspired jacket!

It seems like it's going to be a lot of rainy days the next couple of weeks, so I'm hoping to finish it within July. Hmm, no, I'm going to finish it, not just hoping!

Sincerely

Mrs von Kvenna
