This ruffled vest is the perfect choice for novice weavers! The beautiful ruffles can be effortlessly shaped into natural waves using simple increases like kfb—no complex techniques required. For stunning results, it’s recommended to use section dyeing, which creates a captivating gradient effect in the finished piece.

Pair it with high-waisted jeans to instantly elongate your silhouette for the summer. In early autumn, layer it over a shirt, allowing the ruffles to peek out from the neckline and hem for a charming layered look.

For those feeling adventurous, opt for metal thread blended yarns to add a touch of boldness. Wearing this on a nighttime date will surely turn heads. Once completed, you’ll find it irresistible to take photos and share your masterpiece with the knitting community!

This piece exemplifies the perfect combination of “seemingly intricate but actually simple”—making it a secret weapon for beginners to earn well-deserved praise!
