Bee-zerk

This is a vest I made with scraps a little while back. Not sure why this bee's so vigilant. Maybe he's on the lookout for Monsanto.

it's a bit eyes-on-eyes-ish... but I already smiled so I don't care :P

Thanks @googlyeyes! I do have a tendency to be too literal. 🙂

Bee-zerk is such a brilliant name! Hehe.. Love the bee pattern. How does your vest look like? I've been looking for an easy to make light vest pattern. Do you have any recommendation?

Thanks @marbely ! I will try to get a shot of it when there is more light. I used a basic pattern from an old Ann Budd book, and I was too lazy to add a little waist shaping to update the boxy shape.

Do you use Ravelry? I think it's the best place to find a pattern. I did make a vest tunic last year called Ebony that I really like. I think it might be for chunky yarn. Do you change the numbers for whatever weight yarn you are using or do you pretty much keep to the instructions? I mention that particular pattern because I love the shape of the vest, and I made it the perfect length for me.
