"Spring...Keylime Sweater/Jacket"
This is the 'Dummy' I use for 'size'....it's 'me' , lol
now.... here is view of 'nearly fininshed' Jacket.
Progress photos below.
Beginning of 'Sleeve' !...NEXT is: 'comleted' Body. (folded over) NEXT: and here are 'sleeve &body
I

A Better 'view' of Sleeve and Body ready to be 'sewn' together.
this is how it looks......'sleeves and body sewn together'........'ready for Border'.
I hope you 'got' the idea by now of 'how' I create them.........And, you 'crocheters' try it!
(use your own favorite stitch) Or, if you have ever 'sewn'......it's a piece of cake, (that's where I got the idea ) I used to 'sew' my own designed clothes...../so, idea sprang from that.
(here is view of jacket, all sewn together and Beginning of my Border! Note...... I start at the 'bottom' and work my way 'all' around the Jacket/Sweater)
I have added......at least 6 rows AROUND THE COLLAR.......BEFORE.....I BEGAN the border. (TOTAL) (next:....the more rows you add, the larger the 'body' of jacket gets and Collar as well. Make it 'to fit YOU".......

I could have 'ended' here too.
Now I kept 'adding' rows of the 'varigated' color.
and this is the 'result'.......
FINISHED !
Below.....view with Collar 'closed'....(I did add a few blue rows to make collar 'higher') you can do that! lol
Use your own imagination...... it's fun.
