| Royal Llama Silk Vest |
| Who couldn’t wear this great Royal Llama Silk vest design? For those of us who get a little warm sometimes, a vest can do the trick in place of a long sleeved sweater. The pattern stitch is a simple 4-row knit and purl design so even a just-beyond-beginning knitter can make this. Knit on size 6 and 8 needles plus a 24’ circular size 6 for the shawl collar. Lots of sizings available to choose from. Designed by JoAnne Turcotte. Finished chest measurements: 36” (40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60). Buttons not included.

| Vest in Alpaca Silk |
| Alpaca Silk from Blue Sky Alpacas is so soft to wear. This shapely vest can be worn casual or dressy. Yarn is held double stranded throughout using seed stitch for the body and ribbing for the waistline. The simple design by Val Love allows the yarn to show itself off. Knit in one piece on size 7 circular needles; length depends on the project width. Starting at the bottom, you will go to the armhole and then divide for fronts and back; sew at the shoulder. A simple single crochet stitch using size G hook will make a firm edge. Finished chest: 36” (40, 44, 48, 52). We are happy to customize this kit for you; just pick your Alpaca Silk color and call us at 1-800-468-0035. Or, you can list the color under "Special Instructions" on the checkout screen. |

| Called “Cables 101 Vest” by Janet Szabo, this project is great to learn about cable knitting. The cables are charted (and written out) so you can follow each cable step across the row; the set-up row right above the bottom ribbing gets you going in the right direction. Choose your favorite color of Cascade 220. Knit on size 5 and 7 needles plus a 16” circular size 5 for the armholes. Very classy--will stay in your wardrobe for years to come. Finished chest: 38” (42, 46). |

| Donegal Tweed works nicely for this long vest. Every other vertical section is a lace or a cable design. Besides making a great pattern effect, this also allows the vest to be more light weight. The tall ribbed waist makes this Rosemary Drysdale design even more striking. Knit on size 8 needles. Finished chest: 33” (37, 40, 44, 50.5). |
