Whoot!

so, tonight i could no longer swallow any more of the math i didn't do over break, and i took a knit break. i really think "obsess" would be a great way to describe the need to finish this vest and make it right (dammit). i made the arm band tighter (again) and ran out of yarn, so i bound off with white.. i guess its ok. here's a pic half-way through:

the little pink spot (its a marker) indicates the tightened cuff.

and here, 1.5 law and order episodes later, is the finished product!

the front is still puffy, but maybe this sweater vest just has character. unlike eunny, i didnt match at all in my model outfit.. but heck, just picture me on a golf course.. doing the carlton dance.

Match or no match, you still look cool! It seems you like doing colourwork knits a lot.

HA HA HA! I can totally picture you doing the Carlton dance on a golf course in that sweater! Why is that?

It's a really cute vest- I can't wait to start mine after about 3 zillion other things... boo to my knitting monogamy. I should go to the dark side and cheat a little!

i'm thinking you should make eunny's argyle socks for true golf course fashion.

it looks great!

Dont you look so cute! I love how your vest turned out. After seeing yours I picked my vest back up again to finish it. Hope school is going well for you this semester. Don't study too hard!
