This casual and versatile vest is popular with both young and not so young. It is also a unisex garment.

Worn over a long sleeved T-shirt and teamed with a pair of denim jeans, it makes a stylish statement. Ideally it should be tunic length when completed. Details on how to adjust the length have been provided in the pattern.

The braided front and underarm joins add a bit of extra flair to the finished garment.

The addition of the hood is optional.

The sample used in the written pattern and video is made with Pure Merino Super Wash 4 ply yarn. What an absolute treat it was to work in this this truly luxurious wool. This is mine forever!
