Westminster Vest
My vest is finished and it's actually cold enough to wear it. Yippee!
Westminster Vest Designed by Betsy Campbell for the Wooly West Pattern Purchased at Black Sheep Wool Co. in Salt Lake City, Utah More project details and pictures here.
It's lovely! And, uh, congratulations on the cold weather! We're working on a blizzard here, I'd be happy to send some (all) of it your way. Just let me know.
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.
It looks lovely on you! It is chilly here too! I'm so happy to be caught up enough to be able to comment again on my friends blogs!!!

ReplyDeleteI like it!!!!! Yes it has gotten a bit on the chilly side I agree. Burrrrrrrr
ReplyDeleteOh 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. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat vest. Love the buttons, they add style and interest. Looks great with the other top.
ReplyDeleteHow pretty! I love it. Your vest fits you perfectly and the button is great too!
ReplyDeleteYou look great in that vest, Tracy. I'm feeling "bulky" after all of my holiday celebrating.

ReplyDeleteI really like the neckwarmer you made John, too! I need to make Mike one of those for the nightly dog walks.
What a lovely job you did on your sweater ~ it looks great. Congratulations! Happy new year to you and yours!
ReplyDeleteTurned 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!
ReplyDeleteYou are such a great knitter. The knits always look magnificent from color choice to stitch choice to image backround choice. You are an artist.
