This pattern has just been newly updated and includes three new sizes for older children as well as tweaks to the original pattern sold. Please note that this pattern is no longer available on KnitPicks for purchase.

This classic design is worked seamlessly and accented with a front placket, making it easy to slip over a little one’s head. Fabric is knit intentionally loose for breathability during warm weather. Use bulkier yarn at gauge for a cozy cool weather vest. Play around with colors, stripes and buttons to personalize this simply adorable piece.
