I was trying to think of something I’d like to make for myself and the idea of a vest kept creeping back into my thoughts. As I thought more about it, I couldn’t decide if I wanted a warm vest or a cooler vest…then it hit me…I want both! Giving it more thought, I decided I wanted to design a vest with a couple different stitch patterns…one that is warm and one that is more open. Once I had that figured out, I had to find the yarn…and I did! Lion Brand Scarfie is absolutely perfect for this pattern. This is a loosely spun yarn that has a soft, light and airy feel to it. Worn one way, this vest will keep your midsection toasty warm with a somewhat lacey collar…flip it over (180 degrees…not inside out) and you’ll have a toasty warm collar and a cooler midsection with a gorgeous lacey look.
