And also yes, boo to carpenter ants (at least in/around the house)!<br />Miss C: This is what I'm finding -- it's not as hard as I thought.

The sleeve detail is fabulously intriguing. I look forward to the polyvores.<br /><br />Good luck with those carpenter ants, oh how i hate those things.Mardelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04850551308931710502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-81541082062432979192010-04-30T07:44:38.413-07:002010-04-30T07:44:38.413-07:00Mervat: Welcome!

Having worn this jacket yesterday, I'm now wondering what took me so long -- it's way easier to work into the mix than I thought.
