What does fall mean to you? To me it is all knitting, and fall is coming! Andromeda is a vest worked in mostly brioche, which makes a very soft and cosy fabric. Add that to an already very soft and warm wool yarn, and you can imagine it’ll keep you just warm enough for the chilly fall days to come.

The vest is worked from the bottom up, flat and in one piece with seams for the joining of the shoulder. Then the button edge is picked up and worked flat as well in a contrasting colour.

Since the vest is worked in both stockinette and brioche, there are two gauges:

17 sts x 48 r = 10 cm x 10 cm/4 x 4” in brioche knit on needles size 3,5 mm (US 4)
21 sts x 34 r = 10 cm x 10 cm/4 x 4” in stockinette on needles size 3,5 mm (US 4)

Sizes are made to fit bust: 71 (81 - 91 - 101 - 111 - 122) cm/28 (32 - 36 - 40 - 44 - 48)”
Finished length: 58 (60 - 60 - 62 - 64 - 67) cm/22.75 (23.5 - 23.5 - 24.5 - 25.25 - 26.5)”
