This is a perfectly and lightly textured men’s vest with a little V neck for comfort! The neck and armholes have a lightly ribbed edging and the bottom is also ribbed.

Worked in two panels then sewn together, this is an adventurous beginner’s pattern!

A wonderful Christmas gift for this year, as the time to make this is quicker than you think. I do recommend using real fibers such as merino wool or alpaca (or a blend of those)--or even a soft cotton instead of acrylic. This just adds to the fit and finish of the garment.

The pattern is written for sizes S-4XL and each size has its own set of instructions, so you can simply flip to the page where your sizing is and not have to highlight the stitch counts you need to reach for your size!
