Complete: Garter Stitch Vest!
It always makes me so happy to finish a project.

Yarn used: Wool-Ease (worsted) in Black and Pines. Needles: 5mm.
As expected, I didn't have enough Pines to finish this project. Also as expected, I was able to use black to cover the shortfall. The black yarn is on the shoulders in back and front, stopping 13 stitches short of the edge of the garment (thus maintaining a Pines-colored shawl collar all the way up). I had no trouble grafting the garter-stitch at the top of the collar, thanks to all that practice with my Bog Jacket. :)
Dorset Horn approves of my colorwork! She's obviously a very discerning sheep. ^_^
After all this, I get to start Cherie Amour (and I'm very excited, because it's getting toward the time in the year where it'd be too warm to wear it). I just need to wind up some yarn and then swatch. :)
