Sea Ice is a flattering textured pullover vest knit in Valley Yarns Peru. This lovely vest is perfect for layering over a long-sleeved tee, turtleneck, or blouse. Diagonal ribbing at the bodice and hem add textural details that flatter every women’s figure. Sea Ice begins with two hem strips worked flat in diagonal ribbing. These strips are joined to work the body in the round to the armholes in stockinette stitch, at which point the front and back are separated and worked flat. The hem and bodice ribbing patterns are charted and written out. This pattern is only available as a PDF download!
