Slowly but surely, we're getting there...
Dan's vest is complete:
The pattern is Kid's Vest from More Last Minute Knitted Gifts. Yarn is the wonderful-to-work-with Spud & Chloe Sweater, color Chipmunk. Perfect.
I'm currently working on a matching one for Noah. I'm not sure I'll finish in time, but we'll see how it goes.
And...
A sweater that even the fuss-budget likes!
Pattern is Drive Thru, downloaded on ravelry. Yarn is all Cascade 220 Heathers.
I had to modify it quite a bit: Abi is such a skinny minny that I made it up for size 8, which fits her perfectly around the body, but left the waist and arms very short. I added about six inches ( six inches!!) to the length for both the body and arms. Love.
I'm still working on Toby's Man Vest, and I don't think I'll finish before Christmas. Now that I'm at the final stages of finishing the neck and armholes, I'm running out of yarn. I'm not confident that I've got enough to finish, but I'm that somehow it'll last. Who knows - the widow's oil didn't run out, so maybe God will sustain my yarn supply? Knitting in faith, this is.
