By using one piece for this vest, I have a lot of ground to cover with crazy-quilt shapes. I always start with a small paper template and lightly pencil in lines until I’m happy with all the angles. Then I transfer them to a life-size fabric template, approximately the same angles. The great thing about redrawing the lines onto the fabric is that they don’t have to be perfect, since I know I’ll just knit whatever angle ends up on the template.
