November Vest
Couldn't load pickup availability
The November Vest is knitted from the top down in stockinette stitch. First, a piece of double knitting is knitted, which will sit at the neck and join with the front edges. Next, stitches are picked up in this piece, and the back piece is knitted. Then the right and left shoulder sections are knitted. These three parts are then joined to knit the body, which is knitted back and forth in stockinette with front edges in double knitting. Stitches are picked up in the armhole, and an edge is knitted in double knitting. The pockets are also knitted in stockinette and sewn on last.
Size guide
The November Vest should have a positive ease of around 12-18 cm. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL correspond to a bust measurement of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 cm. Measure yourself with a measuring tape before you start knitting to determine which size suits you best. Example: You measure yourself with a measuring tape around the bust (or stomach, if that is the widest part of your body) to 94 cm. This means that you should knit a size M. A vest in size M has a width of 112 cm and will, in the mentioned example, give a positive ease of 18 cm.
