Campion

Step back in time with this stunning vintage-inspired vest, reminiscent of the elegant styles of the 1930s and '40s. This beautifully crafted garment is knit seamlessly on circular needles from the bottom up to the armholes, ensuring a clean and refined finish. Once the armholes are reached, the project is divided into front and back sections and knit flat to the shoulders, creating a classic silhouette that flatters all body types.

The vest showcases charming colorwork in traditional Fair Isle motifs, utilizing just two colors at a time. This technique keeps the fabric lightweight and manageable, with very short floats for added comfort. Perfectly designed for versatility, Campion’s wide ribbing is ideal for pairing with high-waisted trousers or skirts, making it an excellent addition to your vintage-inspired wardrobe.

For those who prefer a different look, the pattern can easily be modified, allowing you to extend the length for a longer vest style (refer to the photo at bottom left for inspiration). Whether you're a seasoned knitter or just starting, this pattern is user-friendly and is available in five sizes, catering to a variety of preferences and body shapes.

If you're looking to elevate your knitting repertoire with a touch of nostalgia, this vintage-style vest pattern is a must-have. Join the ranks of knitters who appreciate timeless fashion by downloading this versatile and stylish pattern today!
