I wanted a warm vest that did not weight a lot. I used a 3/DK/Light yarn that is 191yd/175m per 1.75oz/50g. Use whatever yarn will give you the correct gauge.

If you want to make this vest longer, it is easy to do with the 12-row pattern repeat. Just remember that will use more yarn!

The yarn I used is a Heather; however, think it would look good in a wide assortment of colors. Have fun choosing!

The pattern is charted with additional information to take you from chart to chart.

There is a 2/2 cable below each arm to give the appearance of a seam.
