Cable Vest Top Knitting Pattern

Make a Top Worth Wearing All Season

You finally found a vest top worth the time investment. Fitted through the body, built with a wide cable running straight from the collar down the front, and finished with clean i-cord edges at the armholes and hem.

Nine sizes means this is made for your body, not just the sample size. Work it as a summer layer or over a shirt in cooler months.

Skill Level: Intermediate
Finished Size: Bust circumference approx. 29" to 54" (9 sizes)

• The wide central cable is worked over 20 stitches in alternating directions, giving the front real visual impact without complicated colorwork
• Top-down construction with shaped armholes means less guesswork fitting as you go
• Body length is adjustable, so you can make it exactly as long as you want

          "Made the size 3 and it fits perfectly. The cable is easier to work than it looks."
