Venam (Lat: veins) Vest is a seamless, top-down Sweater Vest knitted in Fisherman’s Rib (English Rib) stitch. The produced fabric is identical to Brioche, but is knitted differently, and in my opinion, a lot easier than Brioche. The vest is completely reversible, allowing for 2 different color-ways in one garment.

The pattern is written for 3 colors of worsted weight yarn, but you can make it in just 2 colors, or more colors, for a completely custom look.

The vest has a slightly cropped fit, with a high-low split hem.
