FO: NYCO #1, finally

Around the first of the month, I finally finished the Aran-style cardigan vest I cast on January 1 (NYCO #2 (the multi-patterned socks) got finished in April)--a whole month before I anticipated. It's taken me a while to get it photographed, and I didn't realize until I was posting the pictures that it was hanging slightly crooked. Oh well, it really is symmetrical.

Pictures are at the bottom of the page:

project is a pair of silk wool socks. THese are being knitted at thesame time, top down, on two circulars, so that if I run out of yarn, andhave to do the toes and heels with something that contrasts a little, atleast both socks will be the same. Georgia

Thanks, Aud. I will take credit for the knitting--I designed the vest to improve on a hand-me down from my daughter (now a beautiful adult) that I liked except that it was...just not my color. As for the children, I think they must be an example of "hybrid" vigor!

Thanks, Katherine. Now if I could only shrink it just enough to fit me a little more closely....

Well, if you can't shrink it, that colour would look good on me.

What beautiful work Georgia. I enjoyed looking at all of your pictures. The aran vest is lovely and so are the socks. I have quite a collection of striped socks myself LOL. How much are you asking for the blue and red mohair ? Marie and the cats

Ah, so sorry! I just checked and I think I sent it off to someone a few months ago. I will update that page accordingly right now!

Thanks for your kind words. Socks I am working on now will definitely be interesting. It is one skein of ombre dyed silk (shades of tan, ochre, green and red) and I am knitting both socks at the same time (one from each end of the skein), so they will not turn out identical, though they both have tan tops.
