    I have just finished knitting this jacket with upcycled knitting yarn. Photo available if interested.
    There is a problem with the stitch count on the revers.
    It was intended to be included in a VE Day 75 years celebration event in my local church which has been cancelled. I took the opportunity to get it made whilst self isolating. The buttons have yet to be made.
