Type of item: Clothing
For: Women
Style: Casual
Materials
These were all left over yarns in the house, some Reynold's mohair, some 25 year old scraps from Finland, etc. The clasp is a Norvegian clasp.
What was your inspiration?
I actually started a shawl, but then my daughter pointed out that she liked the materials and the colors, and I turned the whole thing into a vest
What are you most proud of?
It actually was given to a young woman starting college in the fall - it is so cute on her and I'm sure it'll fit her new career as a humanities student very well.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
Sometimes the project talks to you half way, be brave to change the target goal if it seems that you'll get something better or more useful out of it by diverting from your original plans.
