Notes	I did it again. (Sorry, is this ok?) I used the jacket pattern to knit a wool jacket and sew the lining. The pattern fits well on a wool jacket with a flared hem and stand-up collar. Of course, I had to shorten the hem by about 15 cm. I made pockets from wool yarn but sewed them together to make a bag. Pockets would have broken the line. Another challenge was sewing the zipper to the lining and jacket. The first version, which I sewed to the lining with a machine, failed and the zipper went all the way around. The white one isn't exactly straight either, but I sewed it to the lining and jacket by hand.
