The The Emperors' New Vest Pattern

Pattern by Lucy Neatby

Skill Level: Adventurous Beginner
Gauge: 24 sts x 37 rows = 4 inches


This pattern is extremely elastic and will fit sizes 32-48" as written. It includes modifications for other sizes as well. The pattern calls for 328 yards of the main color and 260 yarns of a contrast color in sport or DK weight yarn. The contrast color is crocheted around the edges of the holes after the rest of the vest is knit. You will also need about 24 yards of scrap yarn to hold the holes closed until you're ready to do the crocheting.

We recommend our Traditional Colors yarn for the main color and our Kaleidoscope Colors yarn for the contrast in sport weight.
