VF150 Swing Coat

Description

VF150 Swing Coat

The Swing Coat from Vermont Fiber Designs is a lovely coat for cool weather. Its flared silhouette skims nicely over the hips, so it flatters many different body types. The sweater is worked at a slightly tighter gauge than called for by the yarn, giving the fabric more body – a good thing in a coat.
