The Vest is Ready to Fly!

 
 
Here is my creation, a vest from Knitter's Magazine Winter 2005. I added an additional band around the bottom as the bamboo yarn is very drapey and the vest needed some additional stability. I can't wait to see what everyone is going to do.

  1. dear Pat,
    I LOVE your vest! It turned out beautifully. Did Cricket give the paws up of approval? Look at your lovely area and what a great sunset. xoxo

    ps I'm wondering if cotton embroidery floss is the most appropriate for a drapey knit such as your bamboo. What do you think?

  4. I think that any embroidery floss will do. It may help to keep the vest from sagging over time I suppose.
