Just another black jacket

As I wrote a review on PatternReview (PR) for this jacket I realized that almost all of my recent sewing projects have been black. As in basic. As in dark. As in no color. Perhaps its an outer expression of the inner blah-ness ( is that a word? ) brought on by this never ending bitterly cold winter weather we've been experiencing. The temperature was -25 F when I ventured out this morning and, while it did warm up during the day, it didn't quite make it to zero. Then again, sewing all black items could be as simple as the fact that I have black thread in the machine and I've chosen my projects accordingly. So may I present to you just another black jacket. The latest black jacket to find a home in my closet is from McCall's 5756 . It's a simple cardigan jacket with bust darts and a curved shape. The jacket is brought to life by the addition of trim along the front edge. One of the great things about this pattern is that it is one of McCall's made-for-you
