How jolly will your little one look in this charming knit vest? Inspired by beautiful shades from Red Heart Super Saver Bitty Stripes, the yarn does the colorwork for you as you master basic knit and purl techniques to create a soft, cushy stocking stitch fabric. The vest is created in 2 pieces and seamed together with simple ribbing to pull it all together. Make it festive with holiday shades and optional crochet tree and snowflake appliqués for a playful finishing touch. Available in kids’ sizes 2-10.
