I’ve had the amazing opportunity to be an Ambassador for the new WeCrochet site, a crochet-centric sister site to KnitPicks. WeCrochet has so many lovely and affordable yarns. When asked to design a pattern this month, I jumped at the chance to try Fable Fur, a super bulky faux fur yarn that comes in five natural colors.

The result was the Mika Vest. Even as I was working up the original design, I became obsessed with the soft, fluffy texture of the fabric and how wonderful it felt on my skin. I was really thoughtful in adding some special touches, like the generous pockets, cozy hood, and some shaping on the armhole opening to give a comfortable fit. The finished vest is warm, girly, and perfect for the festive season.
