I finished this up last weekend. It made for some good knitting while watching play off games. Now I need to get it boxed up and sent on its way to its new home. I do hope it fits Carol. I texted her for her “over arm measurement” and she asked if I was knitting her a straight jacket. She got excited when I told her it was for a vest and when I sent her a picture of the yarn, her reaction was “yum”. When I was working this I caked up all four of my skeins and ordered them from darkest to lightest. I ended up using 379 grams of yarn, so I have 85 grams of my fourth skein that I can use for something for myself, which makes me happy as this is a lovely colorway. I will hold onto that fourth skein until I know that it fits her, just in case I have to make adjustments.
