I made this jacket for casual Fridays. The tweed is washable, and I’ve washed it about three times. I wore it to a conference in Providence. In July, it dropped below 60 degrees. This jacket kept me warm! I love it, and it’s very comfortable.
The pattern called for a button, but I changed it to a tie because I’m not so great at buttons.
Washable tweed

beautiful, I love it! Love the color, love the fabric, love jackets in general and I like your tie-solution (better than a button).
