Eldon
This classic cabled, v-neck vest starts with a wide rib at
the hem that moves organically into the cable pattern.
The cable is then worked continuously to armholes. At
the armholes, the body is separated into front and back
and the armhole and collar trims are worked after the
shoulders have been joined.
