NATURALLY K488 TEXTURED BABY VEST KNITTING PATTERN
A neatly finished V-neck baby vest with an all-over texture pattern, sized from newborn to 12–18 months.
Pattern overview: The back and front are knitted flat in an eight-row texture pattern, with shaped armholes and a centre V-neck. After the shoulder seams are joined, ribbed neck and armhole bands are picked up before the side seams are completed. An intermediate project for knitters comfortable with working a stitch pattern while shaping, picking up stitches and seaming.
