    We LOVE this gorgeous pattern by Helga Isager, knit in Alpaca 3 and Spinni, a yarn combination that makes a surprisingly nice, rustic but at the same time soft fabric.

    Your Kit Includes:

    • 250 (300) g Alpaca 3 
    • 100 (150) g Isager Spinni 
    • Optional PDF pattern delivered by email (via Ravelry. Include your rav name if you'd like us to add to your library. You don't need a Ravelry account to access the pattern)

      Shown in Off-White.

    SIZES

    • S/M (L/XL)

    MEASUREMENTS

    • Half chest circumference: 53 (61.5) cm [20 3/4 (24 1/4) inches]
    • Total length: 52 (57) cm [20 1/2 (22 1/2) inches]

    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.
