Ride to Heaven Vest--

Size - Adult Small/Medium (THIS PATTERN IS ONE SIZE, IT FITS AN ADULT SMALL OR MEDIUM) (I’m a size small and it is quite loose on me)
Bust Circumference - 37 in (94 cm)
Length (measured mid back incl. neck rib edge) - 20 in (60 cm)
Gauge - 21 sts x 35 rows = 10 x 10 cm (4 x 4 inches) in stockinette stitch on 4 mm (US6) needles with 1 strand Jamieson’s DK
Needles - 4 mm (US6) for body, 3.5 mm (US4) for ribbing
Yarn- Jamieson’s DK, I used 3 balls of Color 1 and Color 2 on the front, 5 balls for the back (which I used color 2 for, but you can use any color you want), and 2 balls for the ribbing

In the pattern I include some basic notes on construction, but this pattern is basically 2 charts with legends. Adventurous beginners who are happy to learn new techniques on their own could tackle this project, but it would be easier for knitters who are comfortable with intarsia, knitting from charts with minimal extra instruction, and short rows.

This vest is knit bottom up in two pieces, the back and front, seamed, and then ribbing is added around the armholes, neck, and hem. The pattern on the front is knit with intarsia and duplicate stitch.
