The Grace Vest is a perfect canvas for showing off your favourite 8 ply yarn. With a simple bottom-up construction with neckband and armholes knitted up at the end, it's a great introduction to knitting garments. The flattering v-neck design is fantastic for wearing over a collared shirt, or knit a size up for an oversized slipover that will keep you cosy.
Knit in pieces from the bottom up, then joined to knit neck and armbands. Primarily in stocking stitch, with rib at band and cuff.
22 sts and 30 rows to 10cm over stocking stitch using 4.00mm needles. How to check and adjust your tension.
Shown here in Terra 8 ply (no longer available). Most Bendigo Woollen Mills 8 ply yarns would suit this pattern, but note Terra is a 100gm ball, so adjust yarn quantities for our 200gm balls. (Equivalent yarns: DK or Light Worsted).
3.25mm and 4mm pair. A 3.25mm circular needle may be helpful for fitting all of the neckband stitches, 4 stitch-holders
