Pattern:
This vest is inspired by the nordic patterns and at the same time a wish to be able to make a knitted vest with Fair Isle on larger needles.
The vest is worked top down. All the rib edges are closed with italian bind off, the italian bind off makes a more elastic edge.
The vest has a positive ease of approx. 10 cm. i.e. if you have a chest measurement of approx. 85 cm, you should make a small.
