This is a beautiful, fun vest made all in one piece from the bottom up. The sizing is widely spaced due to the pattern repeats and since it is fair isle which tends to draw in, choose the larger size closest to your regular size. If you wear a size 38, choose the 42 and it will draw in some and hang better larger.

You will need 2 main colors and 2 contrasting colors:
MC1- 433 (477, 527, 614) darkest color
MC2- 325 (358, 396, 460) lightest color
CC1- 164 (180, 200, 230) medium color
CC2- 164 (180, 200, 230) light color

I designed this vest for a fair isle class I was teaching when I couldn’t find one I liked. So, there’s been several test knits done in all sizes!
