Product Details

Voe Vest worked entirely in the round is a great quick fair isle project using DK weight yarn.

For full sizing, see the schematic and sizing table on the last page.

Yarn 

  • Jamieson’s Double Knitting (100% Shetland wool, 25 gr ball - Approximately 82 yds / 75 m)

A suggested substitute yarn is shown below.

Needles 

  • US 3 (3.25mm); one each 16in (40cm) and 24in (60cm) circular, for ribbing and edgings. 
  • US 5 (3.75mm); one each 16in (40cm) and 24in (60cm) circular for body of vest - the longer length for the main body, and the shorter for when the decreases for the armhole and neckline shaping make the work too small for the longer length; or needles to get gauge.

Notions 

  • 4 stitch holders
  • Stitch markers of different colors Locking ring markers or safety pins
  • Tapestry needle
  • T-pins for blocking
  • Sharp scissors

For reinforcing steeks:

  • D or E crochet hook for crocheted steeks
  • Sewing machine for machine sewn steeks or
  • A hand sewing needle and sturdy sewing thread for hand-stitched steeks
