Lapels

My original plan was to do the lapels in the Rya stitch.  I did a few rows and did not like it as I thought it was too busy for the rest of the jacket.  So I ripped that out and switched to Brick stitch.  It gives the lapel a different texture from the rest of the jacket and does not overwhelm it.  It is all worked in the same colors of Flair and Petite Frosty Rays as the hat.

Brick stitch is a good choice. You are really getting this DONE.
