WIPeout 2009 - Vestigal

PATTERN: Vestish by Robin Dodge in size 2X

YARN: Recycled black 8ply crepe

PROGRESS:


  • Back completed
  • Front at 9" - nearly finished the waist shaping

ISSUES:
  • It's for me, so I tended to put it aside in favour of other projects.
  • I hate sewing up, I really should be knitting this in the round
  • I got to 9" on the front - halfway to the armholes - and put the back and front together to make sure the waist shaping would be in the same place and discovered I'd knitted a 3x back and was knitting a 2x front. Effin' brilliant - very cross with myself.
ACTION: This will be unravelled, the wool washed and I'll knit another vest with it. I won't cast on until the end of this challenge though.

Very strong minded; I'm nearly in the same position with the Fair Isle 101.

Oh you are strong. I tend to hang on too long I think. Living in the misguided hope that somehow the problem will fix itself!!!
