More progress on the 1940s waistcoat! Fronts are done, now onto the back piece and the button bands.

I may not be able to carry the one ring, nor even the one ring bearer, but I could absolutely do second breakfast…and elevenses…and luncheon. And I’d do it in my hobbiton vest, made from romney spun entirely by me! I’m so excited to finally have a wearable of my own hand spun yarn!! This has been the goal for a long time now, and I’m excited to see what more I’ll make.

I don't think I've ever worn a vest, sweater or otherwise, in my life, but I think they would work pretty well with how I dress now--lots of jackets bc 1) I'm cold and 2) much easier to take on and off in public than a sweater or hoodie. But I don't zip them bc zipped/buttons look bad sitting down and im Always Sitting Down. Whereas if the jacket is just hanging open it doesn't look as bad. So a vest would have the same overall appearance without the work of also doing sleeves.

Also, I think i have enough yarn for a sweater vest but probably not for a sweater.

Could also weave large squares of them on my big peg loom. And then felt most likely. I might try that first and see what kind of fabric I get.

Cable knit vest!

First time knitting cables! Hated the yarn so I wanted to waste it on a “bad pattern” (one I had no faith I could do well) but I actually love it! Wish the yarn wasn’t so itchy 😔😔💔

While blocking the other cardigan, I am finally going to finish this vest by adding sleeves and a collar!
