I’m lazy. I’ll admit it.

I may be lazy, but I have another completed knit item.  Therefore I am happy.

The (Not So) Cap-sleeved Eyelet Top

May I present my new, possibly first vest.  Sure it was suppose to be a cap-sleeved sweater, but by the time I got to the sleeves, I was ready to be finished with this.  Not to mention it makes a pretty cute vest.  Instead of adding the sleeves, I just picked up stitches around the armholes and finished them off with a few rows of 1×1 ribbing.

Overall, I’m very happy with the top.  It fits fairly well.  I have a bit of room to grow up top (like that’s gonna happen), but I pretty much knew when I was increasing for the bust area, it might be too big.  It looks fine though and I don’t think it is obviously too big.  What do you think?

And today I will leave you with the latest installment of Kitties Behaving Badly:
