Many years ago, I turned a too large jersey knit sweater into a blazer.

I used my basic Victorian bodice pattern as pattern. So my jersey knit blazer has the typical sloping shoulders of Victorian bodices.

The blazer is closed with a faux metal button.

I also crocheted the lace skirt. I used grey wool yarn: Some wool is so soft, but this wool is rather scratchy. It’s the same yarn which I used for my Victorian scarf.

I’m wearing the skirt over a shiny grey rayon skirt.
