Pattern is written in U.S. Crochet Terms.

I, Joey Lea Baird designed this crochet pattern. I used my version of the Tulip Stitch in making this Sweater Vest crochet pattern. This pattern has been tested by experienced crocheters so if there are any mistakes they are mine alone.

Pattern Notes

Beginning chain 3 does count as a stitch.
The Sweater Vest is crocheted as 1 Panel.
This pattern is worked from the bottom up.
In the pattern I broke each section of the panel down so you can get an idea of what the Tulip Stitch Vest will look like once the back and front sections are sewn together.

I used Paintbox Yarn DK in Lilac
#3 Lightweight Yarn can be used
