The Gambrel Vest combines classic stitch patterns (stockinette stitch, reverse stockinette stitch, garter stitch, and ribbing) in a graphic design that alternates blocks and triangles in relief. Simple shaping is accentuated by a deep V-neck. The cuffed, dropped shoulders make this versatile piece work as either a vest or tee.
