Alpaca Yarns 1421 Whisper Vest
Whisper Vest β Alpaca Yarns Knitting Pattern
Simple, versatile and easy to style, the Whisper Vest is a lovely layering piece for your handmade wardrobe. Featuring stocking stitch, a high round neckline and ribbed edging, this relaxed vest looks just as good with jeans as it does layered over a favourite shirt or dress.
Worked flat in separate front and back pieces, then seamed, this easy-rated pattern combines straightforward knitting with armhole and neckline shaping. Knitted on larger needles for a lighter fabric, it lets the yarnβs soft, fluffy texture shine.
