This stunning cropped vest, the latest addition to the Magic Sunflowers collection (the pullover and hat previouly published)

Worked seamlessly from the bottom up in the round, it features intricate Fair Isle motifs that echo the warmth and charm of its companion pieces. The design transitions effortlessly at the underarm, where it is divided into front and back and knitted flat to the shoulders for a perfect fit.
Whether layered over a blouse, turtleneck or on its own, this vest is a timeless and stylish statement for any season.
If you’re new to the Fair Isle technique, this vest is a great way to start—or, for a simpler approach, you can opt for classic stripes instead of the sunflower design.
