An openwork vest, when worked
with double yarn overs in a filet mesh pattern, is as gentle
as afternoon summer breezes. Knit in a light, linen-blend
yarn, it barely touches the body, yet graces it with its
feminine drape.
Its sideways construction, coupled with short-row shaping
at the sides and along the front, gives the piece its swingy,
A-line silhouette.
The sample pictured is knit with Handmaiden Fine
Yarn Flaxen, 65% silk, 35% linen, (250
m./273 yds. per 100 g. skein), colour “Bronze”,
size Medium.
