Red Surprise is finished

I have to admit it, I am not going to finish my swing jacket before I go away.I could if I rushed it, but I think I'd regret it and I'd always wish I'd done it properly. And you never feel like redoing once it's all done. I did take a long time to find a binding I liked, but I think I have one now.

In the meantime, I have finished red surprise. It's a birthday present for a friend I'm away with, and she loves red. Hope she likes it. Here are front, back and inside views...



The fabric is Amy Butler and goes so well with the bright red of the bag.
Anyway, I am off for a week and during that time I am hoping to master the art of ripple crochet. Have a great week! x
