Product Details
This pattern comes with helpful video tutorials.
**Pattern Notes:**This sweater is knit top down, in the round, with some simple stranded colourwork. The armholes, and optional harness hole, are steeked in last. Cutting into your finished knitting is a little…unsettling to say the least, but not as daunting as you may think. Linked video tutorials of the steeking process are included and will help anyone who is a little nervous about this part of the pattern.
**Techniques:**Long tail cast on, knitting in the round, purling, increasing, decreasing, two colour stranded colourwork, picking up stitches, steeking.
**Suggested Yarn:**I knit this vest in Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK. I chose this for how breathable it is for warmer weather.
