Looking for a vest that is classic, stylish and goes with everything? “Treyi Vest” fits the bill perfectly! With a simple St st body, the wide border becomes the collar ~ and allows for wearing the vest open, or belted, or pinned, or whatever you desire. The optional waist shaping gives you exactly the fit you want.

Knit flat to the underarms, then divided to finish the back & fronts separately. The border/collar knit as part of the body, making finishing quick.

The pattern is written and includes charting for the border/collar.
