Colorful, zig zagging blocks give this low-yardage, quick knit, flattering vest delightful character. Layer it over a blouse or dress for an easy put-together look with minimal styling effort! Vest is worked from the top down seamlessly with intarsia in-the-round and features waist shaping at a cropped length. Want a longer vest? Just mirror the shaping and keep on knitting! With 14 sizes, your fit will be perfect. Notes are also included should you desire to knit the entire vest back and forth. My test knitters really did such a beautiful job, be sure to check them out to see their color combos & styling!
