Here is an easy and quick, oversized knitted vest with short capped sleeves. Whether you are outdoors or indoors, this cozy, top-down yoke vest is ready to pull on for an extra layer of warmth when you need it.

Sizes available from 38” to 56”. These are actual finished chest measurements. Since the sweater is meant to be oversized, choose a size that will give you an extra 2” - 6” around

Recommend a wool yarn that has some drape to it. The model shown is handspun Corriedale, but other available options would be a smoothly spun DK weight commercial yarn (example: Juniper Farm Organic Merino).

Materials list on the pattern shows yardage rather than skeins as these vary between products and handspun skeins. The sweater is shown in a hand painted variable yarn, but can be made using any combination of colors or in one color as desired.
