And here is another wondrous chance to play with yarn, with the gentle guidance of Jane Thornley.
Versatile, flattering and cross-seasonal, this little vest will take you countless places in comfort and style.
Wear it over a shirt with jeans for a casual look, over a tank for summer, or with a blouse or turtleneck for fall into winter.
Designed to be worn open, it can be knit to hit just above the waist or slightly below and features a chic bolero’s pointed back, which can be eliminated, if desired.
The edges are trimmed with a band of thin tape yarn that creates the look of piping when the vest is sewn together. A light pressing alone creates the open v-neck effect.
Choose from a selection of tapes, ribbons, silks or cottons plus a few 'special effect' yarns or head for your stash for the necessary elements to knit up this little garment.
Pretty special indeed.
P.S. What we offer here is the printed version of the pattern. If you prefer a PDF file, Jane offers that on her website.
