A vest with a bold cable panel, V-neck shaping and side ties. This is the most technical garment in the shop – you work front and back post stitches to build the cables – but the instructions take you through every step with photos. Works just as well over a shirt as on its own.

Frequently asked questions
Can I manage the cables as a beginner?
The cables take a little practice. If you are unsure whether the pattern is for you, I have made a video tutorial of the hardest part. If you feel you can manage that, you can manage the whole vest.
Does it come in set sizes?
No, it is made to measure. The pattern includes instructions for adjusting it to your own measurements.
