The lattice stitch pattern on this vest reminded me of cottage windows, so I added seed stitch borders to evoke cobblestone sidewalks, and thus the Cottage Vest was born. A simple diagonal line of twisted stitches running up from the waist lends a bit of femininity to a very simple garment.

Knitted in heavy worsted weight yarn. Seven sizes from 32-56” finished chest circumference.
