Description

Ribs give way to zigs and zags in Kathy Zimmermans timeless, season-spanning mans vest. The two-stitch cable strands move over just one stitch at a time to minimize the amount of draw-in. Kathys given the vest a high ribbed V-neck for a contemporary look and worked it in a rustic tweed wool for classic style.

Finished Size: 41 (45, 47, 50, 54)” (104 [114.5, 119.5, 127, 137] cm) chest circumference, slightly stretched, after blocking. Vest shown measures 45″ (114.5 cm).
Yarn: Classic Elite Skye Tweed (100% lambswool; 112 yd [102 m]/ 50 g): #1272 upland green, 7 (8, 9, 10, 11) balls.
Yarn weight: #4 – Medium
Gauge: 20 sts and 28 rows
Needles: Body: Size 8 (5 mm). Ribbing: Size 7 (4.5 mm): straight and 16″ (40-cm) circular (cir). Adjust needle size if necessary to obtain the correct gauge.
Notions: Cable needle (cn); markers (m); stitch holder; tapestry needle.
