Sidsel Vest is a cool, knitted and open vest with a V-neckline and a tie belt.

Sidsel Vest is knitted from the top down. First, stitches are cast on using a provisional cast-on, and the upper part of the back is knitted. Then, the shoulders of the front piece are knitted while increasing towards the edges. When the armhole reaches its desired length, the pieces are joined, and knitting continues across the full width of the vest. After casting off stitches, stitches are picked up along the edges and in the armholes, and a few rows of stockinette stitch are worked.
