Crochet, easy new born vest
I used two strands of 5 ply yarn for the vest and 12 ply yarn for the blue trimming.
Amount of yarn, main color, two 25 gm balls. Small amount of contrast color.
Size 5.00mm hook for the vest and size 4.00mm for the trim.
Very quick and easy to make up. Size new born to 3 months.
Starting at the bottom of the vest.
DC= yo hook, insert hook into loop, draw through yarn, yo hook, draw through 2 loops, yo hook, draw through 2 loops again. (Australian/English term for dc is trbl)
