Softie is a simple, cozy, and utterly charming vest—perfect for knitters looking for a quick, easy project with a truly beautiful result. The design is created to let you enjoy the process without complications: it is worked entirely in garter stitch, using basic increases and decreases to shape the garment naturally and effortlessly.

What truly sets this vest apart is the hairy-effect yarn. Soft and fluffy, this yarn brings all the magic to the design, creating a warm, plush texture that makes the garment simply irresistible. Here, more than ever, the yarn takes center stage—it speaks for itself and transforms a very simple pattern into something truly special.

Whether you are new to knitting or already experienced, this project is suitable for all skill levels. You’ll be guided step by step, allowing you to enjoy every moment as your Softie gradually takes shape in your hands.

Ready to bring your Softie to life? A fast, relaxing, and rewarding project awaits you. As you progress, you’ll see the vest come together almost like magic—and you’ll love the final result.
