About the Pattern:

This sweater vest is constructed from the top down starting with the back yoke, a european shoulder and crew neck shaping. The sweater vest has an all over textured stitch and a decorative cable panel in the front. The vest is oversized through the chest and then after the yoke is joined, the body is tapered down to the waist where there is an elongated ribbing section. This construction creates a chic and fashion forward silhouette that is great for many different outfits.
