| FO! |
Here's Yannick's mom's finished Steeplechase Vest. It's from an issue of Knit 'n Style from last Spring/Summer. I didn't know how I'd like it before but the more I did the more I liked! It's a really simple pattern, minimal shaping, and went A LOT faster than I thought. The whole thing took about 2 weeks. The lace/garter pattern was really easy to memorize too, and by the time I got to the armholes I wasn't using my chart any longer. I made it with Paton's Classic Wool Merino, 100% merino wool, and even though she wanted black buttons to make it very neutral, Yannick chose pewter buttons with a small pearl in the center of each. The drape is wonderful and I just love it! |
