Crisp, gansey-inspired texture animates the fabric of this handsome V-neck vest in Arbor. An all-over welted rib motif yields to rope cables and chevrons on the upper torso; wide purl gutters delineate the sides. The work begins in the round, then divides at the armholes for flat knitting to the shoulders. Single-rib tubular edge treatments, worked circularly after shoulder seaming, make a polished and professional finish. The pattern is written with slightly tapered or straight options for body shaping. -------------------------------------------------------- **Construction** This vest is worked circularly from the bottom up, and then divided to work the back and fronts flat separately after binding off stitches for the underarms. The armhole and neck edgings are worked circularly after sewing the shoulder seams. **Yardage** 1080 (1175, 1355, 1460, 1660, 1760) total yards of DK weight wool yarn **Yarn** 8 (9, 10, 11, 12, 13) skeins Brooklyn Tweed *Arbor* (100% American Targhee Wool; 145 yards/50 grams) Photographed in colors *Klimt* & *Kettle* **Gauge** 22 stitches & 32 rounds/rows = 4" in Texture Chart pattern with Size A needle(s), after blocking 35-stitch panel from Chevron and Cable Chart = 6" wide with Size A needle(s), after blocking **Needles** Size A (for Main Fabric) One 32" circular needle in size needed to obtain gauge listed Suggested Size: 4½ mm (US 7) Size B (for Ribbing) One 32" circular needle, two sizes smaller than Size A Suggested Size: 3¾ mm (US 5) Size C (for Neckband and Armhole Trim; for optional Tubular Cast On) One 16" circular needle and one 32" circular needle (required for Tubular Cast On only), one size smaller than Size B Suggested Size: 3½ mm (US 4) **Finished Dimensions** 38¼ (41, 45½, 48¼, 52¾, 55¾)" [97 (104, 115.5, 122.5, 134, 141.5) cm] circumference at chest Sample shown is size 41" [104 cm] with 1" [2.5 cm] ease on model > Need help picking a size?
