The Ofelia Vest is a beautiful top that can be worn as a vest for a layering piece on cooler days, or on its own during warmer weather. Knit using an interesting waffle stitch pattern, the Ofelia Vest is constructed from the bottom up, in the round, then split at the armholes to work the front and back separately, for a quick and easy project that will be off your needles in no time.
