Yarn Along~ Treasure Vest & Treasure Cardigan

















I am so excited about the release of my new knitting patterns "Treasure Vest" & "Treasure Cardigan". I have been working on these patterns for a long time and it is so exciting to finally release them into the world. I have made five different ones and I currently have another one on the needles!

I have made many adjustments to the pattern over the past year.  I wanted it to be just right and I am very pleased with how it has turned out.

I knitted the vest and cardigans with Fibre Company Canopy Worsted. I really love this yarn and I love both knitting with it and I am loving how it wears. I also made one with Sweitzer's Fiber Mill yarn that I purchased at Maryland Sheep & Wool Festival. It is a combination of Yak/Baby Camel/Silk/Merino.  I am so excited to visit Sweitzer's Fiber Mill's booth at Rhinebeck this year to see what other lovely yarn they have come up with.

The patterns are charted and worked flat in sections using a US7 needle and worsted weight yarn.

I have been trying these on lots of different people with lots of different body types and I love how they look on everyone! I even love the vest on kids worn over a dress.

They are intended to be worn open, but can easily be closed with button or a shawl pin.

Thank to you everyone that has helped me getting these pattern released!!!


ps- You only have to purchase one pattern and you will get both the Treasure Vest Pattern & the Treasure Cardigan for one price.
