Designed by Megan Carey of Tigs Togs
Defined by its stretchy, twisted rib basque, version two of the Archie Vest is knitted in larger sizes for a growing child! This design is worked in Luxury 8 ply for a warm yet soft and stylish layering piece. It is knitted in the round from the bottom up, then split at the armholes to work flat and seamed at the shoulders. This makes for a simple construction tHat/beanie's easy to knit.
