The “Beautiful in Blue” sweater vest

The colour blue is one of my 3 favourite colours. The colour has many different meanings. It symbolizes wisdom, serenity, imagination and even health. Because it also represents the ocean and the sky I made the beautiful in blue vest in the bubble knit stitch. It reminded me of clouds, but also the ocean waves. I used some yarn I bought a long time ago and some yarn left-overs. This pattern is also very beginner friendly and very fun to make. Have fun making the “Beautiful in Blue vest” and if you would like to share and show it of on your social media. Please tag me! ‘cause I would love to see your knitting projects :)
