Desert Arrows Vest
Feminine styling meets southwest flair. “Desert Arrows Vest” features a deep, Arrow Lace border that works it way up the vest fronts. A crescent shaped hem creates the unique silhouette.
All shaping takes place along the back hem, after the border, and along the armhole edges. There are no decreases to disturb the Arrow Lace pattern. Sized with generous ease for wearing comfortably over other garments.
While the sample was knit in a custom dyed yarn which is not commercially available, this vest will look great in any of the suggested substitutions…or choose your own.
Finished sizes:
Bust ~ 37 1/2 (39 1/4, 41, 42 3/4, 45 1/4, 47, 48 3/4) inches
Hem ~ 40 1/4 (42, 43 1/2, 45 1/4, 48 3/4, 50 1/2, 52 1/4) inches
