Vintage Tie Jacket Reviewed by ricardo on 2009-04-18
I tried to make this sweater for my mom, well what a disaster. It looks more like a smock worn for art class. I was very disappointed but one lives and learns. I found myself rechecking measurements because i could not believe what it ended up looking like. I should have read the reviews before i went to work making this sweater.
