Can you use a flexee skinny.?how many links needed
You would need to revise pattern as more stitches, and thinner yarn are needed for Flexee Loom Skinny.
Really cute vest!! I was considering buying all four flexi looms in the different sizes just for this pattern. Looks like a lot of your patterns only go up to size (L), I am a size (2xl). If you would write up vest/sweater patterns for the four flexi loom sizes in women sizes small to 2xl, I would buy all the looms.
How many should be cast on for medium, large, and x-large?
For the 5 skeins two skeins for the ribbing or rows 31-80
For the 5 skeins is 2 skeins for the ribbing and the stripes, 1 skein for the body of the sweater vest and 1 skein for the top of the sweater vest or 1 skein for the ribbing, 2 skeins for the body and 1 skein for the top of the sweater vest
