[Nfb-krafters-korner] Making a practice vest

[Dixie]

Somewhere around here I have a book about knitting a Fisherman knit sweater.

The book takes you through learning all the various stitches, then you make a mini sweater to fit a teddy bear.  When you are comfortable with that then there is directions how to make an adult sized sweater.

I am going to have to dig up that book and give it a try.

oo Ramona,
You have offered me some very useful info and sparked my’can do’ attitude.  
This spring, I’ve started making  crochet tops, by measuring a top that I like to wear.  Then choose yarn and appropriate  hook size suggested for that yarn.
> With your information I may try something similar with a knitted vest.  But I will start small with a vest  for  a   2 year old first.  For me this is a practical project; the little guy may wear it this winter.  One of my crochet tops might be ready next spring.! lol
Many thanks,

Catherine
