[Nfb-krafters-korner] O'Henry, to do with Figure 8 pattern

[Henry Osborne]

Hi Catherine J.;
Hmmmmm, I've never done anythingg like this before, but, it sounds doable.
I'm going to look in my long loom books and see if there are any patters for 
such a vest. Let's also look on line and see what we can come up with.
Give it a try, and let us know how it turns out.
Henry

Hi Henry and anyone else with suggestions:
I was just looking at the figure 8 scarf I loomed from your class last fall. 
I used a soft fuzzy yarn that has draped very attractively, or that is What 
I’m feeling.  I thought this method and yarn would make a lovely  long 
vest.
Using 24 pegs of a 26 peg loom, the scarf is just under 8 1/2 inches wide. 
I
I’m thinking I could do 3 panels at 8 1/2 inches each  seam to make the 
back.
1 panel of 36 pegs , twice to make the 2 fronts.  Or 4 panels ; 2 for back 
and 1 for each front.
seam shoulders, underarms and crochet nice trim.
What do you think?  Done anything like this using  the  loom?
I’d have to tighten up my measurements and gauge.
Thoughts, welcom.
Catherine J
