A little retro-looking, this vest can go just about anywhere, and is easy to customize when you choose colors. When worked in Cascade Yarns’ Cantata, it will almost feel like wearing your favorite blanket.
Worked in one piece from the bottom up, the only seams are at the shoulders which are joined using a Norwegian-inspired cable-like bind-off.
