Sorry to backtrack but...the skull vest looks awesome. Did you get the motif from Somerfugln(sp)and a generic vest pattern? Mimbres is also turning out swimmingly. You are very productive, even in warm weather. I tend to take a knitting break during the summer months.

That is one gorgeous vest! Those colors look faboo together - you did a great job. And please thank Jack for pointing out the details - I never would have seen them otherwise! ;D

Thanks, Jeanne and NancyB, for the compliments on Mimbres (and helpful little Jack)...I really like this design and will probably knit it again, which is highly unusual for me!

Nancy, no problem with backtrack! I love questions. The chart pattern was from Sommerfuglen, and I made up the vest pattern as I went along; it has the design elements of about six vests incorporated it in!

this is just gorgeous....it make me remember the sea of Maldives. So incredibly beautiful...

I like your version of the Mimbres better than the original! It looks like a beautiful butterfly wing at the top, very pretty.

So nice ! i love mimbre vest with your colours, can you give me the colors and the yarns exactly ?
