MEN’S STRIPED VEST

$5.00

Knit Simple Winter 2008/09 #24
Design by Dawn Leeseman

A scoop-neck earns its stripes by combining two colors in an easy four-row slip-stitch pattern. Ribbing picked up at the round neckline and armholes polishes the look. The beauty of a slip-stitch pattern is that only one color is worked in any given row. It’s the quickest and simplest of all colorwork techniques.
