The granny stripe vest is the perfect piece to pair with any outfit, for any season! This pattern uses acrylic yarn but it could easily be switched out for cotton, making it more wearable in warmer weather. I often style mine over other pieces but it also looks great on its own! This pattern shows you how to make sizes XS-5XL. It is a tight-fitting piece that can be made oversized by going up a size or two. The colour options are endless! You could even go with one solid colour to make a more classic piece. I have said this pattern is intermediate, however I do think it is beginner-friendly! I use lots of pictures to make each step easy to understand. This pattern is written in U.K terms.
