Burda 9/06 #114
Friday, January 11th, 2008Wow…I’ve done just about nothing during winter break. I originally planned on starting (and finishing!) my heathered black wool crepe suit,
but it just never happened. So I’ve decided to start off with a less
demanding project to ease myself into it again. Hence, Burda 9/06 #114:
I like the military look. This particular pattern is one of my
favorites because of how neat, timeless, and versatile it is. There
were a lot of good looks in this issue.
I bought a navy Italian wool/angora blend knit
from fabric.com to use for this pattern. I’m in the process of washing
and steaming it a few times to make sure it is properly preshrunk. It
is a very soft knit, but seems a bit fragile.
