Redeaux Vest
Currently one size available. Works out to be a woman’s ready to wear size S/M or a men’s size small. About 24” in length
Working on a L/XL for future publication.
Knit mostly in the round from the bottom up and then flat for the top 2/3. Shoulders are seamed together with kitchener. No other seams.
The texture of this vest was inspired by a vintage pattern and really makes for a flattering look which does not show every imperfection in your body as a regular stockinette stitch vest would.
The vest is very wearable and dresses up a plain shirt and pants on any day.
Solid colors work best in making the texture POP.
A decently easy knit that, once the pattern is in your head, can be become TV knitting.
Takes just about 5 skeins exactly of KnitPicks Swish Worsted which makes for a nice, soft vest.
… a big thank you to YifatC for her help in test knitting this vest.
