This quick & fun to knit vest combines a slightly drape-y worsted weight yarn (think cottons, linens, silk, alpacas) with a self-striping lace weight to create wonderful vertical striping in this sideways-knitted vest. The lace patterning, along with the drape of the yarn, lends beautiful shaping in this easy construction. The vest can fit a wide range of sizes, & adapting for even smaller or larger sizes is easy to achieve. The pattern includes directions for both the children and the adult sizes - a cute mother-daughter project!
