Beautiful vest! You might be able to tighten up the collar with a crochet hook and the silk-mohair. Also, I like when you talk about sewing. (Those little triangles used to shape the bodice are called darts!)
Thank you 😊 That's a good idea to use a crochet hook to tighten up the collar, I might try that first (and I might have a bit more determination to do it soon then, because I really procrastinated redoing this collar!). And thanks for the words, I'm still learning the sewing vocabulary 🙂
I find the vest very beautiful❤. If you don't like the idea to separate the strands of unspun, I recommend you Plotulopi or Nutiden which come single stranded and then you can pair it with silk mohair. I also recommend you the Jeny's surprisingly stretchy bind-off for binding off at the cuff. Let us know of it worked for you.😊
Thank you ☺ I actually have a plate (but only one) of Plotulopi and it seems a bit prickly compared to Manchelopi, but maybe it softens once wearing it? I might try Jeny's surprisingly stretchy bind-off instead of grafting, thanks for the recommendation! 😊
@@petitvelo I guess that Plotulopi is the most prickly of them all....and I haven't heard that it softens after watching or wearing 🤷♀️. I had once a Pullover in my hands which was made with islandic yarn and the mohair from ito sensai and it felt really soft. I also have one plate of plotulopi and I made a sample but I didn't like it so much honestly even if I am not so sensitive...But I guess with the right mohair it kann feel much better. We have to try😉
I love the vest!!!
Thank you 🤗

@@biristef9490 You're right, with a soft mohair, it should soften it. I've never tried Ito Sensai so I'll see if I can find it 🙂
