A timeless vest does wonders for a wardrobe. When a full-on sweater is just too much, but you need that bit of knitwear, a vest is just the thing. With a hint of lace, Algonquin adds a bit of femininity to this classic v-neck, tailored wardrobe staple.

The lace pattern is both written and charted.
