Congratulations Grace!!! This award is so well deserved! You are a true inspiration to us all!
I, like Heather and Bev am not crazy about ribbing, but I will join in too and hope we make it to 100 vests!
Congraulations Gace well deserved. All those children running around in your vests !
Congratulations to you, Grace! The description of you is so apt 'that you comment kindly on fellow members' photos and encourage us'. I was so happy to see you posting photos again after your absence from the Forum last year.
Well-deserved! Bravo!!
Dear Grace, Congratulations! A well deserved award for you. Your ribbed vests has a special meaning to me. My Mom has knitted those when we were young and I loved to wear them. Sooo warm and comfortable. Every time you upload a new one I have to think of that happy memory. I am glad to have you with us. xoxo
well done and crongrat's , i have downloaded the pattern so will be makeing some in between moving will get them off once settled in my new home.
Congratulations Grace!!!!!!!
Congratulations, Grace! And thank you for being an inspiring force.
Congratulations, Grace!
Many congratulations to you, Grace, on winning this award - thoroughly deserved! In your honour, I will definitely try a 'Grace's Vest' this month - and this will be a real labour of love, as I hate ribbing and avoid it whenever I can! However, I set my goal this year to try out all the garments in the KAS pattern book, so this will be the next.
Much love to you!

Warmest congratulations, Grace. :)) You are such an inspiration to us all. I have procrastinated over creating one of your vests for soooo long, as like Heather, I don't care for rib very much....probably cos I'm not crash hot at it, but will certainly try one this month. I hope many other members (knitters, that is) will answer the call and try one too.
Psst...maybe I will try one in varigated yarn and then my imperfections may go largely unnoticed...hee hee
You are so deserving of this award....hip hip horray. :))
