Raiding Junior's Closet

Razziando l'armadio dei figli! With two sons*, I always thought I would miss out on the joys of having daughters "borrow" items from my closet-- and perhaps returning the favor. Con due figli maschi*, pensavo sempre di perdere le gioie di avere figlie, coloro che potrebbero prendere a prestito le cose dal mio armadio-- ed anche di perdere la possibilita' di prendere a prestito le loro cose. But maybe I was too quick to call Florin a "child's" vest; I was looking at it the other day, and thought, "I wonder if that would fit me." And the result? Not bad; not bad at all! Pero', forse ero troppo affrettata quando chiamavo il Florin un gile' dei bambini; lo stavo guardando l'altro giorno, e pensavo, "Mi chiedo se quello mi starebbe bene." Niente male; niente male affatto! *I do have two grown stepdaughters, but somehow I doubt that raiding their closets would do anything to endear me to them (hi Carmen!). *Ho due figliastre grandi, ma dubito che di razziare i loro armadi mi renderebbe caro a loro.

I also would like to make this vest for myself! I would also like to know your normal size and if there might be any chance you will be adding some larger sizes to the pattern?
May I ask what size you wear. I just bought the pattern and plan to make a couple for the children in my life, but I would also like to make one for me. Thanks, Lisa
I am thrilled to see you wearing the Florin! It looks even better on you.
Just bought the pattern. When I first saw the pattern, I thought I would make it for my sons, but now I think I'll make it for me too!
Such a gorgeous vest. It really works well as an adult vest.
Looks great; a perfect fit!
I skip the not bad, and go with very good!
Absolutely stunning vest and perfect color.
