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:
But the laundry perfectly matches my eyes!
The vest looks awesome. You look very cute and pretty in it
Dottie is cute too, she looks right at home
