A vest is the most versatile item in your wardrobe - layering over tanks, tees and sweaters, or under jackets and parkas. This vest is also particularly flattering! The shape is formed organically by the progression of the cabled design that also draws the eye upward. This is an engaging knit for an experienced knitter, or an adventurous intermediate. Knit up a handy wardrobe staple that's sure to impress! This pattern is 10 pages long and includes 4 pages of charts. It is designed for experienced knitters who are familiar with working cables and comfortable reading charts. The cable pattern is given in charted form only. This pattern requires careful following of the directions! The pattern is professionally tech edited and fully test knit to be clear and free of errors.
