We love a good vest because they’re so stylish and versatile. Thanks to its loose fit and elegant waterfall silhouette, it’s easy to make a statement with the Peony Vest. Thoughtful details including twisted ribbing, soothing slipped stitches, and a tidy I-Cord edging complete the look.

PATTERN NOTES
This vest is knit flat from the bottom up and seamed. An I-Cord edging is worked around the armholes and the front opening for a tidy finish. This vest is intended to be worn with a generous amount of positive ease in the body. Due to the open nature of the vest, finished measurements are given based on the back width at the bust. When choosing a size for this pattern, choose a size that is closest to your actual back bust measurement.
