Gender neutral with an amazing fit, the Charlie Vest is a must for your handmade wardrobe. The Charlie Vest is constructed in two flat pieces and then sewn together. The ribbing is stitched to the bottom, sleeves and collar once the the two pieces are attached. Each size has a slightly different bobble motif. This piece could easily be made without the bobbles if you would like a plain vest. If you decide to do this, replace all bobble stitches with half double crochet stitches. Both models wear size 3-4.
