Hello!
I am beyond excited to share my first pattern with you all. I have created a handful of patterns since beginning my knitting journey, but have spent a lot of effort specifically on his vest to create beautiful and uniform diamonds for every size, and can’t wait to see it as one of your favorite layerings for spring, winter and fall like I have.

This pattern calls for bulky yarn. I used merino wool (Meriwool by We are Knitters), but use your favorite bulky yarn that has some stretch to it.

Sizes and yarn needed per size (yarn is approximate and based on 150 yard, 3.5 oz skeins)
XS: 32” bust, 300 yards (2 skeins)
S: 34” bust, 450 yards (3 skeins)
M: 36” bust, 450 yards (3 skeins)
L: 39” bust, 600 yards (4 skeins)
XL: 41” bust, 600 yards (4 skeins)
2XL: 45” bust, 750 yards (5 skeins)
3XL: 49” bust, 750 yards (5 skeins)

Happy Knitting!
