Vintage Stripe Vest

Pattern format

Instructions

This vest consists of the front piece, back piece, collar, and cuffs. First, work the front piece. Then it's the back piece, and its neck-and-shoulder part should be binded off with that of the front piece.  After that, sew together the hems and the even section of the bodys of the two pieces (the color can be random). Finally, pick up stitches around the neckline to knit the collar, and pick up stitches around the sleeve openings to knit the cuffs.

Due to variations in individual tension, the size of the sample is for reference only.
Materials: Susan's Family Morandi 8#

Needles: 6.00 mm knitting needles
