I had intended this vest as a Father’s Day gift. It just wasn’t in the cards this year. It has been nearly finished for a long time. I’m still getting around to changing the calendars to October, and I’m reminded that my Dad’s birthday isn’t too far off. A little K1P1 ribbing later, and the vest is an FO! How pleasant that there was no seaming to be done! The yarn I used is Morehouse Merino 3-Strand.

Ah, good. I think Spice approves of the latest scarf!
It’s taken a while! I got this yarn at Stitches West back in February.
It is Fourplay from Brooks Farm. There was a knitted sample of the
scarf on display in their booth. It was so nice! Alas, they were out of
that particular color scheme. I chose this, which I liked less. I don’t
like many variegated yarns, even with a yarn I love like Malabrigo.
They are almost okay, then I find areas that don’t blend together
well when knitted up. This Fourplay yarn is different. The colors
always look pretty to me! It was a pleasure seeing them as I knit.
Here is the simple pattern I followed.
