Knitting from my stash part 2


Isn't this a wonderful patchwork jacket? What is really awesome is the amount of stash I used to make this.
1 skein MCY Passionate Heart worsted weight wool/silk
1 skein MCY Wildwood bulky weight wool/silk
2 skeins MCY bamboo in raspberry, pink, orange
1 skein MCY bamboo in green, pink, yellow
1 skein MCY rayon eyelash in pink
1 skein MCY rayon eyelash in green, pink, yellow
1 skein MCY dk Cashmere in soft pink
1 skein MCY 100 % merino wool pink, hot pink, and fuschia
2 skein MCY angora purple, pink, fushcia
1 skein MCY purple cotton ribbon
1 skein MCY cotton ribbon in purple, yellow, pink
1 skein MCY cotton in pink
1 skein MCY raspberry 100% wool
2 skeins MCY pink mohair
2 skeins MCY white mohair, red thread
2 skeins MCY eyelash
1 skein MCY bulky cotton rayon "Faith"


a sundry of sequins, and colors as accent. Lots of colors and fun using MCY's different yarns. Some are special order.

The Pattern is by Christine Bylsma and is called Crayon Box Jacket
her website is www.chrisbylsmadesigns.com
The pattern is extremely well written and is a dream to work. I had a lot of fun creating my own look which she is so kind as to call you a designer when you work your own yarns.
The pattern on her site is $8.00 and well worth the cost for such a lovely jacket.
