Much love and admiration for Andrea, Isabell, Joji, etc…

So much love for Ravelry itself too which continues to be my #1 top favorite most frequently visited site for years.
Thank you to the entire staff and all fellow Designers here and all project makers here for helping me and each other to get through tough times productively, proudly, and powerfully.

When my sister asked her son Tyler what games/characters he likes best, my young nephew answered Steve from Minecraft! And Roblox. A Roblox thing will be for his next birthday. For this one, he will be receiving this fun versatile washable vest top.

Top-down, split front and back for sleeve holes, rejoin in the round, ribbing around sleeves and bottom, then we sew the neckline down. Easy breezy! Super easy to adjust the size bigger or smaller too.
