Easy Edgy Vest

The Easy Edgy Vest is a retro v-neck vest that is made in a colour pattern repeated with two different colours. This pattern is for the knitter who wants to learn how to create a multicoloured pattern. The vest is made from the bottom up. As a finishing touch, a twisted rib stitch is added to both the armholes and the neckline. The vest has a slightly oversized fit.
