STITCH GUIDE HELPFUL NOTES: It is strongly recommended to pre-wind the two different yarn combinations C1 and C2, and C1 and C3 into united balls before you start knitting. Do not break off yarns after completing each yarn change when following the striping sequence; instead carry yarns not in use loosely up side of work until required again. Take care to start new balls of yarn only at beginning of rows as both the reversible nature of the vest and the fact that stitches are laddered means knots and ends of yarn will become obvious and not provide a neat finish. Therefore fasten off loose ends at side edges. STRIPING SEQUENCE: Using 1 strand each of C1 and C2 together, work 4 rows as stated in instructions. Using 1 strand…

BEGINNER'S TOOL KIT PINS  Plastic-head pins are useful for checking tension and blocking out items. Pins with coloured heads are best because they do not get lost in your work. KNITTING NEEDLES  Knitting needles are made from plastic, aluminium or wood and come in varying lengths and widths. Straight needles come in pairs and doublepointed needles come in sets of four. KNITTING BAG  A knitting bag is essential for those who like to knit ‘on the go’. Not only is it a practical way to keep all your knitting paraphenalia together, it also helps keep the yarn clean and tangle-free. ROW COUNTER  A row counter is helpful for keeping track of rows worked, particularly where increases, decreases or other kinds of patterning occur. KNITTING IN ELASTIC  Elastic yarn prevents sagging…
