Noah's Cobblestone Inspired Vest

This is gonna be quick as I am supposed to be heading out the door...

Tada! I love how this vest turned out and it fits him perfectly (well still enough room to grow that it should fit for a little while I hope!). This was going to be a Baby Surprise Jacket, but I started it in November and my little one has grown at quite a fast rate. I used my yarn, handspun from Pigeonroof Studios Roving (my fave indie dyer). I haven't gotten buttons yet, so I have stitch holders pinning the shoulders together.

One skein down.....

11 more or so to go! I must say I am in LOVE with how this skein turned out. Looks like it should be the perfect weight and I should have more than plenty! This skein turned out to be 171 yards and three oz and looks spot on for aran weight (though I still need to check wraps per in). It has a delicious feel and I want to just start knitting it now!

As promised

Ta-Da! - The first braid is one half, and the lovely pile-o-fiber after that is the other half! This is the Blue Faced Leicester that I dyed up for John's Cobblestone Pullover as mentioned in yesterday's post.



Here are two of the other rovings that I dyed up that same night - they are up in the shop as of now!
