Vest No. 9 by My Favourite Things Knitwear is a classic V-neck vest with fine details. The fit is relaxed, with positive ease, so it layers easily over your other clothes. It's worked from the top down with no seaming: the back is shaped first, the fronts are picked up and joined, and then the body is worked in the round, finished with neat 1x1 ribbing and tubular bind-offs at the hem, neckline and armholes.

We've put together yarn bundles for this pattern using our own Opus held together with Echo, our silk mohair, for a soft, airy fabric with a gentle halo.

Please note: these bundles include yarn for the vest only. The scarf shown with the pattern is not included. If you'd like to knit the scarf too, you'll need 1 extra skein of Opus and 1 extra skein of Echo.

Pattern is sold separately and is available from My Favourite Things Knitwear.
