This vest is made in a similar fashion to piecing a quilt. First, make many small mitered squares that get assembled into larger quilt blocks. Then rectangular spacers are made to get the placement of the blocks just right on the body. The body is made in an odd shape that is designed to surround the quilt blocks. The quilt blocks are seamed into the body as it is knit. Finally the plackets and neckline are applied along with the buttons.

This sweater vest is a classic fit with a shoulder that finishes at the shoulder round or just slightly narrower. Please see the fit chart.

Sizes: XS (S, M, L, XL) (2X, 3X, 4X, 5X)

Gauge: 18 stitches + 34 rows = 4 inches // 10cm in garter stitch
