Doris,

Prima has a girl's bolero pattern that appears to be rather dressy. Perhaps this would work for your granddaughter?

Hi: I'm looking for a knitted pattern for my youngest two grandsons. I'd like it to be for a v-neck vest with some cable stitches in it. I am also wanting to use worsted weight yarn.

Can anyone help me.

Thanks for your input! I'm sure the beginning knitters at LoveToKnow Crafts would be interested in any other tips that you might have.

New knitters,

I agree that "Once the knit stitch is mastered, you can make the same kind of cloth using a purl stitch, knitting one row and purling one row across. Then you can experiment with ribbing."

Another way you can practice "knitting one row and purling another row" besides dishcloths, is knitting fingerless gloves. Cast on about 28 stitches. Knit 4 rows of ribbing. Then knit one row and purl another row for about 20 rows. End by knitting 4 rows of ribbing. Just get a yarn needle and sew the 2 borders together. An instant fingerless glove!
