A classy cover-up to add a pretty extra layer to any outfit.
A simple shape with plenty of positive ease. The rolled-back front borders are worked all-in-one with the fronts, created by the reverse stocking stitch. The neck-knot on this gilet adds interest and style, but is also optional.
And a huge bonus - no borders to sew on!
