Westknits

This is a PDF knitting pattern

This casual cardigan vest is knit in pieces, two fronts seamed to one back piece. Most of the fabric is a textural moss stitch pattern in the main color. A ribbed collar in a contrasting color is attached to the front pieces as they are worked using a simple intarsia join.

Once the 3 sections are knit and assembled, you can choose to sew closures to the ribbed panel, create I-cord buttonholes, add a belt, or wear the vest open for a more relaxed look.
