We loved the idea of a hooded vest for early fall and Therese Chynoweth has come up with this gorgeous interpretation. Allover cables meander up from the edge into an allover cabled hood that really sets this vest apart. A diamond cable and bobble pattern frames the placket to add even more knitting fun.
