Came up with this pattern on my own, and then got coordinating fabric for a lining. The knitting is done, I’m just sewing lines into the lining where the needles will go now.

finished before thanksgiving, need real pictures! 11/8: separated off for the left and right fronts, and decided to do them two-at-a-time.

co with Judy’s Magic Cast On. work only one needle until just shy of double the width of bag strap. Kitchener the two needles together. 🙂 easy schmesy!
my mother in law bought the yarn and pattern for this at Redlands Yarn from the owner/designer. 37g of sequin yarn remains.
used the 40” size at the top and 48” at the bottom, with decreases/increases in the ribbing on both sizes. increased a little more for the bottom section once joining. split hem feature. Cast on so I could knit on this during the Zombie Knitpocalypse 2015. Didn’t make much of a dent until the flight…
This is a top down, set in sleeve opening, open front flowing vest, using a Fade-like concept to transition between colors. using math from The Handy Book of Top Down Sweaters by AnnBudd and the measurements I used that fit well from the Meris. starting with Wisteria, held double, for the top of the shoulders….
