Texture Vest Pattern by Helga Isager

Designed by Helga Isager

KITS AVAILABLE HERE!

TEXTURE VEST is a new design in Alpaca 3 and Spinni, a yarn combination that makes a surprisingly nice, rustic but at the same time soft fabric. The vest has fine details with rib edges that continue into the pattern, and a beautiful collar.

The shape of the vest follows the pattern repeat which makes the calculating of sizes difficult. Using the original yarn combination, the pattern only has two sizes: S/M and L/XL. However if you want a close fitting vest, the smaller size with its deep armholes can be worn by someone who is size L.

For a smaller vest (size XS) the vest can be knitted on needle size 6 mm with only one strand of Alpaca 3 (no Spinni) and following the numbers for size S/M. For a larger vest (size XXL – XXXL) knit with two strands of Spinni on needle size 7 mm, following the number for size M/L.
