Notes	Happy with my new jacket! In several reviews I read that this pattern has a great fit, so I had to try it for myself. Indeed it does! I made it with a fabric that looks like wool (fake wool). It's quite warm, especially with the lining in it, so it will be perfect for fall. I was trying to make a light vest, but it became quite thick and heavy. Next time I will try one without lining, and make it lighter. I found it quite easy to make. There are a lot of pattern pieces involved, but it's not difficult to fabricate. Although I did leave out the (fake) pockets, the cuffs and the collar.
