This is the first time I attempted a garment and I gathered enough courage to make this because I thought crochet would be quick and I was using a chunky yarn. I used a Bonus Chunky Yarn from Sirdar in colors apricot and duck egg. I bought the yarn from Hobby Craft and took a pattern from beacrafter.com. I must say it took me around 3 weeks to make and it was really difficult to keep motivation. I am so used to making toys,hats and cowls that keeping at it after the first couple of days took a lot of drive. The end result is totally worth it though. I love looking at patterns for knitted or crocheted garments on pinterest but always get daunted by the amount of time and effort not to mention expertise it will require to make a garment. This pattern was really easy though and at the end of it I was so proud of my achievement. I will at some point make another garment but for now I am just basking in the pride of finally making a vest.
