Full size chart and garment measurements below.
This vest is knit in three panels (two front and one back) that are seamed together at the shoulders and on the sides leaving arm openings. Panels are knitted flat from bottom up. All panels can be knit either on straight or circular needles. Collar is knit by picking up stitches around the neck. All panels feature stranded colorwork throughout. Tip: this project uses super bulky yarn for colorwork - you don’t have to carry the yarn for the rows or sections (edges of each panel) where MC or LC color is not used to prevent the garment from getting too heavy.
