Open-front crocheted vest using 3 colors of worsted weight yarn. Finished bust sizes are 40-46-52”; length is 20-21-22”.

Pattern calls for 3-4-4 skeins of the navy color (A), but 2-3-3 skeins of each of the burgundy (B) and natural (C) colors.

While the pattern stitch is called ‘Linked Sc’, it is a version of what is commonly known in crochet as the ‘linen stitch’. It is not a ‘linked’ stitch as is commonly thought of in, for example, linked dc.

Schematics are included.
