A lovely and simple piece to knit.
Easily to pair up with any outfit.

This vest is meant to be a loose fit garment, I will not worry too much on gauge, That’s usually how I knit! Just Knit Happy!
The Olive one is in Zealana Air.
The Camel color one is in 2ply 100% Alpaca Size M.
Black one is size L. Knit w/ 2ply Cashmere pair w/ Superior lace.

The Hood can be omitted, make the vest with Shawl Collar instead.
Just continue knit up 2 fronts lapel collar, extend to center back of the neck, seam (graft) them together, sew on to Back neck.(BO neck sts.)

I am knitting one w/ Shawl Collar now. I will post pictures when it’s finished.

Happy Knitting!
