Materials
The original yarn used for the vest was made by Prism. No name is given, but Impressions seems to meet the description given. Yarn (A).

An alternative suggested is to use assorted cotton (or cotton flannel) fabrics cut into 1/2” strips knotted end to end with 1” ends left untrimmed to form “flags” and paired with a multicolored eyelash yarn. (Yarn A).

Anny Blatt, Victoria - used for the crochet border trim. Yarn (B).
