WG 77 Double-V Vest
I call this design a Double-V Vest because there is also a V in the back; it is filled in and only exists to allow the front and back cables to meet at the shoulder tops. Here you may rise to the challenge of weaving a twisted-stitch cable to itself -- or not! The prototype was knitted in the new Wool/Alpaca blend (lovely) and, even though it is only half wool, I worked crocheted steeks at armholes and center-front. You may prefer to machine-stitch.

WG 76 Guernsey Pullover
Knitted in the round to the underarms, then worked flat to the shoulders-eliminating the need to cut-this is a great project for both beginning and experienced knitters. Insert instructions include numbers for a child's and an adult's size.
|
WG 75 Child's Norwegian style Cardigan
Inspired by a drawing in one of Jan Brett's books. The body is knitted in the round with armhole steeks for a slight Modified-Drop shape, and another steek at the base of the scooped neck. |
