This pattern is no longer available through The Sanguine Gryphon. It is being reworked and will be available through Tabitha’s Heart shortly.

This vest is knit in one piece from the bottom up. Part of the waist shaping will be done with 1x1 ribbing, to reduce the number of decreases and increases necessary. This will allow a little more flexibility in the waist sizing.

Sizes
XS (S, M, L, XL, XXL)

This vest is designed to have no ease or negative ease, so the finished dimensions will match the measurements listed in sizes. Because of the ribbing, there is more flexibility in the waist measurement. If you are between sizes, it is more important to match the bust measurement than the waist or hips.

Yardage above includes additional yarn for edgings. Yardage for vest without edging 600 - 1000 yd. You will need 600 - 1000 yd Gaia Fingering (3 - 5 skeins depending on size) and 400 yd Gaia Lace (1 skein for all sizes)
