Red Double-Breasted Jacket

My first attempt at something to be worn to work. Who would've thought casual wear would be popularized by the IT industry a few years later? I remember not enjoying working on this. It was really boring and although there were subtle purl stitches here and there, the yarn was too fuzzy so I couldn't see where I was and ended up winging it. It fit quite well... , but I know, the gold buttons gotta go. I will change them SOON and maybe even add a lining. Perhaps that could add some spice to this otherwise neglected jacket.

Yarn: Don't remember, except that it was probably the most expensive yarn I bought as a student, 5.5mm
