FO Friday - My Knit Vest

My first knit piece of clothing is done!  My knit vest is complete!



The seams really scared me, but I don't think they look too bad.



I was so nervous to try it on.



It is a little big in the width and a little short.  I think I can make it longer with blocking, but I think I'm stuck with the width.  Overall though I am very happy with it.

I've linked up with Tami's Amis, Natural Suburbia, and Wisdom Begins in Wonder.

  3. Great job....seaming look good. Maybe next time you might want to pick a pattern knit in the round so you can skip this scary step.

    Really like the color. I seem to be knitting a lot lately with the purple/violet/lavender hues.
