I’ve been knitting a cabled hoodie vest by KD Design for a while. I’ve written about it here.

There’s a few firsts for this project. It’s the first time that:

• I used yellow tweed yarn
• I did an I-cord bind off
• I knitted a hood
• I knitted cables
• I did a three needle bind off

For some reason, despite loving the feel of this yarn from the Bendigo Wool Mills, the pattern I found slow and cumbersome because I’m not as quick with cables. Also the I cord bind off must have been done incorrectly because the cord seemed to be on the wrong side of the work! I hand to hand sew it in place to have the cord on the right side!

Anyway it’s done. Now it just needs to be blocked and I can wear it. My first garment I’ll wear that is yellow. 🤣
