Chevrons and Ribs Vest

Pattern #W5. This buttoned cardigan vest is designed to work up easily and quickly. A "when you're done, you're done pattern"! The knitting is worked entirely in one piece, with bands and buttonholes knit as-you-go. Once the knitting is complete, only the shoulders need to be joined and buttons attached. Design features are a bold textured chevron pattern and yoke shaping using the natural draw-in of a ribbed stitch.
