Beautiful, I have never seen one before but I can see from the front how they can make someone look slim. You did a fantastic job making this. Great color too. I can see why these would be a big seller.

I call it a shawl collared vest......

No, what I mean is what pattern book is it from e.g, Company, code number etc?

Or did you make it up yourself. Love Chris

Vicki, can I ask what type yarn you are using? I cannot knit, but I have seen these in crochet, though not as pretty as yours here.

toogie,
I have just completed 2 crocheted round circular vest for my GD and have now started my 3rd one for her. If you go on to Pinterest there are heaps of free patterns for all ages.

Hi Toogie........I can't remember the brand of yarn, it was a self striping, and it is acrylic with a bit of wool........

Beautiful, I can`t knit or crochet , so I admire people who can :) Maybe I`m going to learn, when I become a pensioner.

Beautiful once again. I can see now the shape of your back and length of the armholes. The one I attempted to do with that shell crochet had shorter arm slits. This is how the lady on YouTube said to do it but to get back shaping like yours I can see the longer slit is necessary before all the rounding of rows. Just lovely.
