Robin Vest ENGLISH

kr.50,00

This pattern is in English.

The Robin Vest is worked top down with fisherman’s rib. First the back piece is made, then stitches are picked up for the right and left shoulder. These three parts are put together at the end to create the body. The body is worked back and forth with fisherman’s rib and finally stitches are picked up at the armhole for a narrow, twisted ribbing edge and along the two front pieces for a nice, twisted ribbing edge/button band with buttonholes for 4 buttons.
