Notes

01-09-2017

I didn’t get gauge but because the pattern is simple, I was able to do some calculations that will let me knit with 3.5mm needles as planned.
It’s easier than expected to do these simple calculations, it makes me want to not worry so much about getting gauge in the future.

Finished with back and pockets, started on front today.
Planning to do both fronts together, but I may need more yarn!
(On the third skein now)

Fronts finished… the armholes look reaally big. But it may work out fine after it’s finished and worn.

Ordered more yarn, finished with 5 skeins now. I will probably be able to finish it without needing the excess…

Silly me… I didn’t need more yarn at all. I ‘lost’ the sixth ball in my yarn bin, as well as counted wrong.
So far, I have used 4.5 balls for the whole thing.

Seamed together, starting with the band now. I just want it to be done already!

Also the armholes look fine because it’s a loose vest.

162 stitches each band
