This cutie patootie low-yardage, quick knit is super satisfying and flattering. Layer it over a blouse or dress for an easy put-together look with minimal styling effort! Vest is worked from the top down seamlessly and features waist shaping at a cropped length. Want a longer vest? Just mirror the shaping and keep on knitting! With 14 sizes, your fit will be perfect. This is a great first sweater project for adventurous beginning knitters. My test knitters really did such a beautiful job, be sure to check them out to see their color combos & styling! Sweater is shown in Size 3 with no ease.
