Pondering

So, for making a steek, which is correct, left side or right side?

Drr..

ok, so after careful examination of eunny's vest progess, i think her vest is way better than mine so far. consequently... and sadly, my five inches of vest has become quite a mess of yarn. sigh. maybe i will make swatches and follow the directions after all!

The Vest!

Eunny has started a trend. not only has she starrted a trend, but my knit adiction has most definitely been rekindled. did i do homework this weekend? yeah right. i was barely able to pry myself from my needles to go to work... and i need money to buy yarn!! obviously that is why i work. but i *need* to knit this vest! i want to see the argyle.. i want to tell everyone i am making a super vest.. i want to imagine the day that i actually find myself wearing vest, with pride even.. and most importantly-- i want to find out if this vest will fit! i like to try things on as i go, and so i have been splitting up the-story-of-the-vest-so-far on needles and pulling it on to see if it is ok... but the arms? i wont know until its blocked and cut and steeked. very suspenseful. im not so sure about steeks either. i made a practice steek that seems to be doing ok, but its only about two inches tall, and definitely has no worries about strenuous use or anything. maybe i will block it and see how this sticking happens. someone should give a seminar about the similiarities between water molecules and wool steeks.

anyways, ive done a few more rows since this picture, but here is all five inches of my wonderfully wonderful vest so far:
