Universal Yarn

Feathered Vest

Designed by Rachel Brockman

The fuzzy texture of our Minou yarn makes even the simplest projects stand out. Worked using two colors, the Feathered Vest is a fabulous layering piece for the autumn and winter seasons. Light as a feather, but warm thanks to the blend of baby alpaca and wool in Minou, this simple garment is one you’ll wear again and again. Pair it with a button-up shirt underneath for a polished look, or just wear it on its own for a casual day out.

PATTERN NOTES
This vest is knit in the round from the bottom up. The front and back are separated at the underarms and then worked flat, separately. The shoulders are joined using the three-needle bind-off. Then, stitches for the neckband and armhole edging are picked up and knit in the round.

The Feathered Vest is available as part of the e-book Soft Simplicity and as an individual pattern on Ravelry.
