Bauhaus Vest

Bauhaus Vest is a seamless top-down vest featuring an all-over cable pattern with a clean, architectural feel. Designed with a modular, rhythmic structure, it blends texture and simplicity into a modern, wearable silhouette. The vest is worked flat at the beginning, using Japanese short rows to shape the neckline and shoulders for a comfortable, well-balanced fit. Front and back are then joined, and the body is worked in the round, allowing the cable pattern to flow seamlessly without interruption. With its relaxed fit and graphic texture, Bauhaus Vest is a versatile layering piece that works effortlessly across seasons — easy to style, but with enough structure to stand out. Worked in a worsted-weight yarn, the fabric is soft yet defined, enhancing the geometry of the cables without adding heaviness. • Seamless top-down construction • Worked flat and in the round • Japanese short rows for neckline and shoulders • All-over cable texture • No seaming required • Relaxed / oversized fit • Video tutorials included • Intermediate level (advanced beginner friendly) — — — **MATERIALS** **Yarn** 9 (10, 11, 13, 14) (16, 17, 19, 20) balls of Cusco by Lamana (100% Baby Alpaca, 85 m / 50 g) **Yardage** 787 (897, 1028, 1137, 1268) (1399, 1487, 1706, 1826) yd 720 (820, 940, 1040, 1160) (1280, 1360, 1560, 1670) m A worsted-weight yarn with similar gauge and drape is recommended. **Needles** US 6 / 4 mm circular needles (16” / 40 cm and 32–40” / 80–100 cm) US 7 / 4.5 mm circular needles (32–40” / 80–100 cm) — — — **GAUGE (after blocking)** 24 sts × 28 rows = 4” / 10 cm in stockinette stitch 24 sts × 28 rows = 4” / 10 cm in cable pattern — — — **SIZES** 1 (2, 3, 4, 5) (6, 7, 8, 9) **FIT** Designed to be worn with approx. 10–12” / 25–30 cm of positive ease in smaller sizes, with slightly less ease in larger sizes.
