Tilda Vest

**ABOUT THE PATTERN** The Tilda Vest is worked top down without seams. You’ll begin by creating the foundation chain to shape the neckline. From there, the shoulders are formed using raglan increases, gradually building the yoke. Once the yoke is complete, the sleeves and body are separated at the underarms. The body is then worked straight down to the desired length to finish the top. We have video tutorials accompanying the pattern. The videos are only available in English. **SIZING** Sizes: XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) Chest Circumference: 71-76 (81-86) 91.5-96.5 (101.5-106.5) 111.5-117 (122-127) cm [28-30 (32-34) 36-38 (40-42) 44-46 (48-50) in] Ease: Positive ease of 6 cm [2,25 in] Final Chest Circumference: 81.5 (91.5) 102 (112) 122 (132.5) cm [32 (36) 40.25 (44) 48 (52.25) in] Final Length: 40 (42) 43 (45) 46 (46) cm [15.75 (16.5) 17 (17.75) 18 (18) in] **SIZE GUIDE** Select your size based on your chest circumference. For the best fit, measure your bust at the fullest point and choose the size closest to your measurement. For example, if your bust measures 86 cm [33.75 in], choose size S, which has a finished chest circumference of 91.5 cm [36 in], allowing for 6 cm [2.25 in] of ease. This pattern is designed to have approx. 6 cm [2.25 in] of positive ease in the smaller sizes and then gradually less positive ease in the larger sizes. If you want an oversized fit, we suggest sizing up. **HOOK** 3 mm crochet hook Or a hook size with which the correct gauge is achieved. **MATERIALS** Yarn needle 5 stitch markers Buttons (amount depends on your desired length and design) Scissors Tape measure **GAUGE** 18 sts x 20 rows = 10 x 10 cm [4 x 4 in], in stitch pattern with a 3 mm hook, before blocking **YARN** **Grams** Color 1 - 150 (150) 150 (200) 200 (250) g, Baby Cotton by Lang Yarns (50 g = 120 m) Color 2 - 150 (150) 150 (200) 200 (250) g, Baby Cotton by Lang Yarns (50 g = 120 m) **Balls of Yarn** Color 1 - Equals 3 (3) 3 (4) 4 (5) balls of yarn (50 g = 120 m) Color 2 - Equals 3 (3) 3 (4) 4 (5) balls of yarn (50 g = 120 m) Option to include sequin yarn 75 (75) 125 (125) 150 (150) g per color, Paillettes by Lang Yarns (25 g = 112 m), this equals 3 (3) 5 (5) 6 (6) balls of yarn **Yarn Alternatives** Mandarin Petit by Sandnes Garn (50g = 180 m), DROPS Loves You by Drops 7 (50 g = 170 m), Daily Stitch Cotton by Hobbii (50 g = 170 m) **DIFFICULTY LEVEL** This pattern is suitable for beginners to complete beginners.
