Tessellated Vest by Andrea Mowry Ravelry Pattern

DETAILS
The most frequent request I’ve received this past year, is for a vest. I thought - what better time to debut my first vest pattern, than at NY Sheep & Wool?? Perfect for layering, this mosaic vest is my new favorite wardrobe staple. I can’t wait to see how you style it!
This vest is worked from the bottom up. The body is worked in the round until the divide for the yoke. The remainder is worked flat, and the shoulders are finished using the 3 needle bind off.
