A classic V-neck vest is a lovely piece to have in a handmade wardrobe, adding an extra layer without the bulk of sleeves. Cleckheaton Pattern 463 creates a men's vest in 8 ply merino, with a neat, well-structured finish that's easy to dress up over a shirt or keep casual for everyday wear.
Designed for intermediate knitters, this timeless project is as practical to wear as it is satisfying to make.
