You did a great job. That gauge thing can get you can't it? I remember one of my first sweaters turned out big enough for the Jolly Green Giant's sister. It was too funny!

It looks so handsome. I need to make my kids something like that. I doubt any of them would wear it, though. :(

Great job.

That looks great! My boyfriend recently requested I make him a vest, so it's great to see pictures like this and get ideas. You did a great job!

I just finished one for my dad and it's drying in the kitchen. He feels the cold badly and I made it from Shetland wool so it should be cosy. Zaraliz

ps I sent the vest to my dad and he went all round the nursing home to show it off. He's very pleased it's so warm. Zaraliz

Thank You!!!! I've been searching for a vest pattern for my hubby. I started to design my own but I was getting stuck on the front. Now I can modify this pattern.

Looks sharp. I wish we had more men's patterns available to us. I usually take the women's designs and try to convert and masculinize (??? my own word) them.
