Knitty's Boogie Vest
I love this vest! I am really happy how well it turned out. Although it wasn't hard at all, the knitting was a bit monotonous. The only problem I have is that, due to the nature of stockinette stitch, the armholes tend to curl in a bit even after blocking with heat...perhaps I should try wet blocking. The vest is made of 8 skeins of Knitpicks' wool yarn in Mulled Wine color. I am tempted to make another one in cotton as a tanktop for summer since it looks quite good worn alone....will post a pic of that later.
Sorry if my expression looks a bit weird (as I always do in my knitting pictures!)...it was about 1:45 am so I was tired and excited at the same time. Guess what I'm wearing to school today ;P
