Peek-A-Blue

 

Tanis Lavallee has a new pattern. You can purchase the pattern for Peek-A-Blue on Ravelry.

I designed this vest to be entirely reversible. How fun is that!? I initially envisioned it with the ties in the front, but I see myself wearing it with the ties in the back most often. This top features clean, graphic lines created by working one of my very favourite edgings along each edge of the vest. The edging is worked as you go, so there is almost no fiddly finishing required, always a delightful bonus! Choose a linen or cotton blend yarn for a more summery feeling or knit this vest in wool for a great fall layering piece. 

Instructions for knitting entirely in the round with no front opening or ties are also included.




We had bags and boxes all over the store. Lynn moved them to the front door after closing so we’re ready for the morning. The weather looks good. Not too hot. 
I sat quietly in the front room and Lynn straightened the shelves. She kept finding yarn for the sale. Spud & Chloe Sweater was one of her finds. She found quite a few full bags (5 skeins in a bag).
Beth decided that she needed to play 9 holes so her and dad went across the road to the golf course. I’m finishing my post then doing the last minute printing for tomorrow. I want to be in bed early - I’ll be at the store early ready to get going.
