It fits well.
I'm pretty happy with it, though I'm not convinced the green turtleneck (what I had on at the time) is the best underlayment.
It took about 2.85 skeins of Cascade 220 for the 44" size.
I also have to say this: I got a comment from someone I did not know on Flickr. It was an ambiguous sort of comment, that could have been merely positive or sort of creepy depending on the context (which is impossible to tell in a brief comment). The person had no public photos that I could view - nor did they have any info in their profile.
I was creeped out enough - not knowing if this is a man or a woman or who - that I blocked them. I feel a little ratty about it but then again...if the person IS a creep, it's for my own protection. If the person isn't, I'll never know...but I get uncomfortable when people make no information available about themselves and make somewhat personal comments.
I don't know. The whole personal-boundaries thing on the Internet is weird. I'm probably less protective of myself than I SHOULD be (e.g., my face showing in photos of me). But part of it is I don't think I'm anywhere "hawt" enough to attract too many creeps (and I never have before), and part of it is I just don't like the whole subterfugey "you don't know me" ethos.
I don't know. If things do ever get creepy, I may have to rethink my strategy.

I had something similar happen with a picture of socks I knit; suddenly I had 3 or 4 people favoriting them, and when I looked at their profiles, *all* their favorited pictures were women's legs in knee-highs socks or stockings. *shudder* Not that I mind people within those communities putting up pictures for each other, but I didn't want them using my picture.
I deleted the image (so it wouldn't be on their list anymore), and reposted it without tags (I'd had "kneehigh", I think, can't quite remember now). They didn't come back. I think if they had I would've just deleted it permanently, which would have been too bad because they're great socks. :)
The vest looks great, but I think not with the green turtle neck, the green is just a different tonal from the vest. Otherwise I love what you make, it encourages me to be more adventerous.
seeing the green & brown together makes me think of mint chocolate chip, lol.
