Below is a photo from a book I found at the library:

29 quick to stitch sweaters, tops and shawls and more
This is my next project
FYI: I will not complete in a weekend.

OMCs I used an H crochet hook for the 7" Afghan squares.
This project I'll use a L hook. It took me a few days to get accustomed to the much larger hook.
TIP at the top of the pattern reads:
This style fits best when it's oversized and it should look and feel like a blanket.
Below is are the first 8 rows, of the back.
The yarn is Yarn Bee soft & sleek low pill fiber.
Color is Melissan

There are 3 pieces to the vest is
Back has 43 rows
Two front panels are 44 rows.
I will keep you posted.
It's going to be beautiful and we can't wait to watch your progress! Love your November header!
ReplyDeleteI love the color that you've chosen and I think it'll be a beautiful vest. And warm. I'm slowly taking a few stitches on mine, but there's always so much going on here at home I only get a few minutes it seems. Happy Saturday
ReplyDeleteOMC, how did Lynn miss seeing Angel Madi's newest headliner! Furbulous!

ReplyDeleteOh, this is inspiring, Miss C! Love the look of that yarn. I look forward to progress 😃 YAM xx
Mine Mommy lowers her head in shame. She went to a crochet class a week ago. All the ladies (and one gentleman!) made a nice long strip-of-work just like your picture. Mommy made one that was barely a raggedy-inch long, and a half-inch of it had been started by the teacher! She is fumblefingers with this ... purrhaps not to be her thing we think ...
ReplyDeleteI like the looks of that and I love the yarn your using. This will be awesome for those cold winter days and nights.
ReplyDeleteLove the picture in your header. So cute.
I love the color you picked out and can't wait to see it finished. You are not alone in not being able to finish it in a weekend. I can never keep up with how fast some people crochet.
ReplyDeleteA very charming new header! Ooh la la, I love the color! A new crochet project... it's going to be something fun to look forward to for sure. Yes for Saturday Stitches!
