"Sweet Sorrow" Jacket

As in......
parting is such sweet sorrow.

I'm lamenting yet another project intended to enhance my own personal wardrobe. Sadly, this one slightly snug. Enough to be annoying. I blame it on my linebacker shoulders because my weight hasn't changed THAT much. It will be up for grabs in my shop soon (when I take some better photos. and it's so much cuter on). Until then, I am going to cry on my pillow. I hope it finds a good home.










I'm trying to decide if I want to sell this as a regular. It is so easy, easy, easy. We'll see.

{p.s. I purchased a new pattern and will be attempting this little lovely in a larger size. the neckline is just too pretty to pass up. maybe I will try it in wool this time. oh, and it closes with a snap}

  6. I am not sure I would fit. You are very petite looking and super slender. I am petite, not so slender... i can get rid of the baby belly. i am real mom, not a celebrity one... how much would it be? or would you consider a trade?
