starting all over again

I started on this mitered little vest

in red colours some days ago.

Then, last week, my friend M visited me,

wearing the blue vest.

I asked her to take it with her so I could measure it

and decide what size to make the miters in the new red one

( she looks wonderful in it )

I decided to make less squares ánd use a smaller size needle  2,5

I made an extra sample with needle 2

Then I took it with me to the knitting group at the alpaca farm.

There, our new friend I

(who is making a gorgeous multicoloured BIG triangle shawl) 

said the knitting would probably become too stiff on that 2 needle.

I also realized that with one square less the pattern wouldn't fit anymore !

Thanks for the advice !

I started all over again !

ánd I dicided to add some bigger squares too !

That was partly because of the wonderful book

I found at our dear alpaca-lady's shop !

An very early birthday present !!!

Mmmmm ..... there will be more knitting, I guess

Uhhhh ...

YES !
