Vestee as interpreted by Duckworth Vestee as interpreted by Duckworth

Pattern: Vestee, hoodie version| Knitty Spring 07 | smallest size
Yarn: Koigu Kersti, 4 skeins (maybe?)
Needles: US5 (I think?)
Modifications: I knit garter rib for the cuffs only, and the rest of the body in stockinette.

Dude. I completely forgot that I hadn't finished this.

It's been awhile since I've done any seaming, and it wasn't much. Upper part of the body was knit in the round, and it's peanut-sized. But. I think I really hate seaming.

I'll be mailing it out ASAP to its intended recipient who luckily is still very much a baby. Charlie will be going too. The poor thing has been has been folded in a fetal position for months now. Oops.

PS I loved working with the Kersti yarn. Soft like a bunny!

Vestee is lovely in Kerstie yarn. I don't design sweaters in the round any more--have discovered they fit better made in conventional back and forth knitted pieces.

Regards,

Marjorie
