Close fitting, zippered Fair Isle Vest with corrugated ribbing and generous fold-back collar.

Yardage includes all colors.

Additional gauge - Fair Isle Chart 3: 32 sts and 30 R to 4” with US 5 needles.

Also requires one 19” - 20” zipper.

Body is worked in one piece to underarm. The garment is not knit in the round as a traditional fair isle piece would be, so there is no steeking to be done, however you would have to fair isle on the wrong (purl) side, unless you wanted to adapt the instructions to knit in the round with steeks.
