A classic, minimal garter stitch waistcoat.

This waistcoat is knit from the hem upwards to the shoulders in garter stitch. The round hem is first shaped with short rows after which the body is knit to the armpits and then divided into the back and two front pieces, then worked further in sections, and finally connected at the shoulders.

HALI means ‘a hug’ in Finnish.
