O - my gosh it's almost dinnertime , 45 degrees and I'm still
in garden. DOES THIS VEST HAVE POCKETS? YES.
Make a simple and warm vest for this tricky season from
chunky or worsted weight. Bring or purchase yarn and
needles appropriate for the yarn. Ballpark 800-1200 yards
worsted or 700-1000 yards chunky, depending on your size.
First class make your gauge swatch and design/plan your vest

2 SOCKS
on 2 CIRCS!! with Louise Schlossmacher
$35
3 SATURDAYS 10:30a-12:30p HOPIN'
FOR SUMMER
DATES TBA SOON . Make a PAIR of TOE-UP socks all at once. When you
bind off you are finished. No 2nd sock syndrome!
[this technique also works grandly for
mittens]
Worsted weight yarn is suggested for the class, to make a
pair of boot or hiking weight socks. You need 2 circular needles
same diameter, US #4 or #5 or #6 depending on how crisp your fabric is
on which needle. 24" has proven to be the best length for
needles, though not mandatory. It is most important to have SMOOTH
cable connections and a straight, relaxed cable.
