Siren Vest
Pattern Description from Interweave Online Store: “A pattern of simple shells makes a bold statement when crocheted in an oversized gauge and a silky, fluid yarn. Sleeveless and open, this vest features a V-neck, front string ties, and a deep ruffled trim. The yarn is a luscious tape that produces a fabric with serious stretch. The vest will seem small while you are crocheting it, but never fear-it will open up beautifully when blocked and worn.”

- 33 (37, 42, 47)“ (84 (94, 106.5, 119.5) cm) bust circumference
