A classic, minimal garter stitch waistcoat - now also for the littleones!

A classic, minimal garter stitch waistcoat.

This pattern is our take on the classic children’s garter stitch sweater with the ‘luik’ (hatchway) neck opening closed with buttons.

This basic garter stitch waistcoat is knit in chunky weight wool in one piece from the hem to the shoulders. It is knit in garter stitch and it is a great project for a beginner as only few very basic techniques, like increasing and decreasing, are used for the shaping of this garment. Working with the bulky yarn is also oh-so fast and fun!
