“Olski worked her cabled colorblocked vest, gleaming in ‘Canopy Worsted’ from the Fibre Co./Kelbourne Woolens, in phases, starting the front bands before casting on for the lower back and using increases to form the curved edge. Once the piece reaches the desired depth, it’s worked intarsia-style with the front bands. The ribbed lower band is picked up and knit downward; a double-ended zipper adds casual flair.”

Yarn: 4 (5, 5, 5, 6) hanks of Main Color (MC); 3 (4, 4, 5, 5) hanks each of Colors A and B.
