Simple but rich—and surprisingly quick to knit—this cabled vest makes a great gift when you find an important birthday is sneaking up on you. The staggered cable pattern has classic good looks and is very easy to memorize. Narrow, knitted-on I-cord makes an understated finish at the armholes and neckband.
