Fair Isle Knitting

January I had to travel and see my daughter.
Over Christmas I had started a jacket in her favorite colors that I brought along to finish while helping her after surgery. It was finished and is one of the few pictures I have. The picture is taken outside when we went for lunch, she in her PJ's, as all other clothing would have pressed against her stitches.

 But I was also knitting something for myself:

I had started the Katherine of Aragon Jacket from Alice Starmore's book Tudor Roses. A lot of fun.
Both those projects were knitted using Knit Picks Palette yarn. It is soft and I love the fact that it comes in so many colors. The first picture shows the inside, after the steek is cut open, the second picture the start of the sleeve and the third me wearing it in San Francisco.
