That turned our very nice, Tracy. The vest look very nice on you...The shape is so flattering. And so is the yarn--I like the marled tones. I think I have those same buttons--waiting to be used on a cardigan! Knit Happy :o) ((HUGS))

You did an amazing job of your vest and you model it so well! You should get lots of wear out of it these next few days - it is supposed to freeze this evening (Houston). Seems like we have had more cold than usual this year.

Oh I really like that! Time was when I'd go on past vests, but as I get older and lose more weight I find that I get cooler more often. :)

Great vest. Love the buttons, they add style and interest. Looks great with the other top.

You look great in that vest, Tracy. I'm feeling "bulky" after all of my holiday celebrating.

Fantastic knitting as always Tracy:-)

It's beautiful, Tracy, and it fits you to a T!

I really like the neckwarmer you made John, too! I need to make Mike one of those for the nightly dog walks.

Turned out great Traci! You will never want for warm clothing, right? But nothing is as beautiful as what we make with our own two hands. Great job!

You are such a great knitter. The knits always look magnificent from color choice to stitch choice to image backround choice. You are an artist.
