Feeling the Christmas getting closer with a new Buterick 6492

There is no secret by now how much I love this pattern. Is comfortable, is unique and it has pockets. SO I decided to make a new serie for the the new season and enter the one pattern many looks competition this year as well.

Here is my first version in a warm red with textured stripes:

I also added a collar this time. I was playing with this idea since I made my sisters's red version and now it finally felt like the right time for it:

Totally lost count on Butterick 6492 - but here we are one more

 I was really involved with dots and lines this months but I still want to catch up on a few other projects. I know I have made more than 10 of those but I am really wearing them daily and feel great in this design. Perfectly comfortable to wear, pockets and a bit unusual:

This time I used a stable jersey with mig motifs print and a slight 3D texture.
I picked some sort of necklace line around the front opening :

Continuing with that like of print didn't seemed that great for the lower front so I used The seaming on the front piece to turn the fabric 90% and change the print for the lower part. I was able to match the big circular motif quite well that you can easily be deceived there is not a seam there:

I also used circle for pockets but I think I should have better used the motif from the back inserts.

 I am quite pleased with this version and the effects I got from fabric placement:
