New hooded coat
This coat pattern has been a work in progress for a while. I really like how it has turned out and it is very cute in the space dyed sock wool.I wanted the fairisle top underneath to be fine and light and to pick up the colours in the coat without being the same. The blue worked as a good contrast. The oatmeal background makes the top look summery. I used lace weight shetland wool for this top.

I am not sure about the brown trousers though. They look nice with the duffle but maybe a bit dark with the top. The top actually looks very cute with denim. Would have liked corduroy in the same colour as the oatmeal but the corduroy that I have is too light in colour.
I am planning fairisle socks to go with this outfit.
