Here’s a literal twist/lean on a classic slim-fit ‘V’ neck sweater vest. The all over seamless colourwork pattern is reminiscent of checks and houndstooth but isn’t, and the addition of purl stitches to the colourwork adds unexpected texture and a little challenge. It is worked in the round with knotted steeks, which require some patience, but give a beautifully flat finish.
