In the spirit of the KAL, I am using a pattern and fiber from a French Company, Bergere de France, though I placed my order for supplies from a UK source called IntoKnit.
I'm planning to knit the 'Getaway Jacket' which is in the Spring/Summer Mag, number 511.
I've purchased the yarn shown in the picture, a cotton synthethic blend. I hope I like it ok! I don't have experience knitting with fibers like this, but it seems like it will be light to hold which is important for knitting in hot weather. I just hope it isn't too splity.
The pattern and materials are practically sold as a kit, so I opted to also buy the black buttons shown in the picture.

I love it- tres chic.
Let me know how you find the pattern. I had some interesting experiences with their baby patterns a few years ago. Thought it was the translation but my mil confirmed that the french was just as confusing.
Very French chic!! It looks divine and how clever to buy a kit!! We're not very 'kitty' here!!
Bonne chance!!
You have a great project for the KAL -- I hope the yarn is as fun to knit with as it looks!
