A modern, interesting take on a classic gilet.
There’s lots of super texture with its aran-style patterning, side pockets and roll collar.
The collar is worked in garter stitch with shaping on the inner edge only. The lower edges, armhole borders and front borders are all worked in 2/2 rib.
Full instructions are given for reversing the buttonhole border for women.
