Gordon’s 4th birthday present - Progress 3

No time to lose as i’m working this in double strands of Katia Mako 5, a very fine Egyptian cotton yarn. I’ve used this yarn to crochet a newborn double-breasted vest for Malcolm before. And also a button-front vest for Gordon for his 3rd birthday.

This is indeed a beautiful yarn to work with. I’ll be knitting this in 3mm all the way up, starting with 90 stitches for the 2″ garter and increasing to 106 stitches after that. I think it’ll take at least 10 rows to knit even an inch, lol. Really time-consuming piece.

I’ve got plenty of time as Gordon’s birthday is on 29th August. But that’s not the reason to procrastinate. That’s why this pic was taken at my cousin sister’s wedding dinner just now, lol. I’m really a knit freak. Didnt i say i am not afraid to knit in public.
