Red/Pink Tomten

EZ's fun Tomten Jacket is way more difficult to photograph than to knit, at least when the colors are bright, and the model and young lady full of energy.



I have posted a couple of images on my blog, and some more in flickr. I still hope to give this jacked a complete FO post with notes one day, but as I finished this in march I wanted to show it to you before may!



This jacked has a long (pre)history already, but I enjoyed it all the way to the end. Now if only I could get nice buttons for my tomten... nevermind, my daughter wear it closed with a special keyholder, and it works! As you can hopefully see, she has plenty of room to grow within her tomten jacket, which is good. It is made with one thread of red alpaca and one thread of pink cotton. I hope you'll like it.
