Just a little while ago this project was just an idea in my head. Now it's a small, but tangible progression of that idea. Boy do I wish I had more to show you, but...life gets in the way of creativity! However, you get a glimpse of how this is turning out. I'm loving it! I was driving home thinking "Does anyone wear cables in the Summer?" I don't recall, but I will be wearing them this summer! LOL! I used a thin thread so that it would be very airy, otherwise the cables would have made it really hot. I've decided to name this "East Hampton Vest" since it's just a loose interpretation of the South Hampton Vest. Gosh, I wish I had more time to knit!

The vest may turn out loose and airy, but this summer you're going to look "hot." Gorgeous knitting. Looking forward to seeing the finished project.
Gee thanks Lynne! Let's hope so! ;)
The thread was a great choice! The cables look cool and breezy. Perfect for warm weather!
I agree Deez. Even a fingering weight 14 wpi would have been too heavy with the cables.
Fascinating with the different length of stitches, combined with the cables - very interesting to look at!
Looking forward to the FO, and in the evenings, you'll be glad of the cabled parts!!
Looks like it's going to look amazing with the shorts!!
Looks very interesting! I'm also waiting to see it finished.
What a perfect match!! Oo... I can't wait to see the whole outfit completed!
Oooo that vest is going to be so pretty... love the cables.
All of you guys are looking forward to seeint the finished outfit. Believe me...so am I!:)
That's going to turn out great! I can't wait to see the finished vest.
Thank you ladies for the encouraging remarks. Boy the pressure is on now! LOL!
Can't wait to see how it turns out! It looks airy and not too hot to wear. No pressure, though:D
I just commented on the earlier post, but meant to put it here:). This is really coming out pretty!
Ooh! It looks so pretty! The airy pattern is really elegant.
Elegant, pretty...I like those words! LOL! You ladies make this so fun! Thank you. Can't wait to show you more!
