Notes

January 2025: Realized back in October that I don’t have enough yarn for this project. I can see that I’ll run out. Debating what to do next. I think I want the vest and will probably try again with a different yarn.

Using this yarn held double with size 9 needles gave me the appropriate gauge.
I like the idea of a dark vest and I think the heavy silkiness of the the yarn will give the vest good drape and give good definition to the texture.

For some reason I started making the XS (first size). I think I made some mistake when converting the cm to inches and checking sizes. Anyway, it was looking too small. So I recalculated and the S gives me about 10 inches of positive ease and that seems about right for this flowey/drapey slipover.
