The Hanover Vest is a simply constructed vest, perfect for fall and spring days or to add a light hand knit element to an outfit. Worked in a half fisherman’s rib to create bold stitches, the Hanover Vest is a quick knit worked in two pieces and seamed together. The collar is picked up and knit, then folded over.
