Bericht auf deutsch im Stricktagebuch vom 25 Mai 2009
The vest is worked in 3knit-3purl ribbing which makes a perfect fitting. First it was knit in the round then two wings were added which form closing front parts without ruining the well fit.
That is what I don’t like on many circle vests: the bigger they grow the more they slip from the shoulders.

The ribbing allowes as well that the collar can be turned: front and back are alike.
I worked twelve increases every fourth round and changed the places of the increases.

When reaching the back’s width I made open worked sleeve openings which I finished with round edges.

Then I worked the wings and made a round border as well.

On one of the pictures you may see how far the length of one skein’s thread reaches.
