I am a big fan of vests, but it typically understates its identity and is submissive to other items in my opinion. So I have designed the unisex vest that roars its existence with unmistakingly dynamic and chunky cables.

I am so grateful for Whitney from Harrisvill, who graciously supported Highland yarns for the vest.

The testers used various types of yarns so that each vest shows off subtle and unique result, which I am extremely happy about.

The vest is worked from the top down. After the shoulders and the necklines are shaped by short rows, the front and the back are worked separately for the arm opening. Then the body is worked in the round. Easy peasy.
