ABOUT THE GARMENT

The «Anna Vest» is a versatile, warm slipover. It features a saddle shoulder construction and a deep armhole. The edges are worked in twisted rib for a nice contrast and good fit of the vest. The turtleneck completes the autumn/winter look.
The triangular cut with the wide shoulders and the slightly slimmer body makes for an 80’s revival and fits perfectly to high-waist jeans, skirts or dresses.

SIZE GUIDE

The Anna Vest is designed to have a comfortable fit with a positive ease of approx. 5 cm / 2 inches measured around your bust after washing and blocking your garment.

The sizes are designed for a bust circumference of 76-82 (82-88, 88-94) 94-100 (100-108) cm / 30-32.5 (32.5-34.5, 34.5-37) 37-39.5 (39.5-42.5) inches.

Measure your bust circumference to determine the proper size for you to knit. If, for example, your circumference is 92 cm you should knit a size M with a circumference of 97.5 cm.
