@grape2trish, thank you! I used the gray and silver that were used in the sample garment for the magazine, but I swapped out the red and orange yarns for sage (the green) and teal (blue). You can see photos of my color choices, and the other colors of Nimbus, at the Skacel site: www.skacelknitting.com/.../.f

Thanks for the great feedback everyone!

@Kelleigh, I think black, tan, and cream would be awesome, but you'll need a 4th color! :D

@Kathleen, thank you! I love my buttons.

Love your coat! It looks like so much fun to knit!

I thought intarsia would be hard, but once my brother convinced me and I tried it, it was soo easy.

Wow! What a great looking coat!

I fell in love with this the first time I saw it but have yet to lay down the fear and try it. Think I'll wait for your Project Diary before I take this on. Thank you for writing about this coat.

Thinking of Black, tan, and cream for the colors though. What do you think?
