Circle Vest Aran Weight

Knitting enthusiasts will love the aran weight version of the Circle Vest, which is designed to knit up quickly using size 9 needles and seamless construction. This vest uses Cascade Eco+, a versatile aran or bulky weight yarn made from 100% wool, ensuring both warmth and comfort. Ideal for knitters of all skill levels, this pattern takes advantage of the stretchiness of ribbing to create a flattering and stylish fit. The built-in edge for the armhole is crafted with knit stitches on each side of the ribbing, adding a clean and professional finish to your project.

The Circle Vest comes in two customizable versions: one with ruffles for a more playful aesthetic, and one without for a sleek, tailored look, depending on your style preference and how fitted you want the vest to be. The sample for this particular pattern was skillfully knit using 2 skeins of Cascade Eco+ in the lovely color 9448, resulting in an aran weight vest suitable for a 34” chest with 18-inch armholes. This version is designed with a more fitted silhouette, as it features minimal ruffles at the edges and only a few bust increases for shaping.

For knitters seeking more options, this pattern is available in various yarn weights, including the [Circle Vest in 12 Sizes and 4 Yarn Weights][2] and a [bulky weight version][3] to cater to all preferences and project needs.

Gauge: To achieve the proper fit, use aran weight yarn with a gauge of 5 stitches per inch (1 inch is approximately 2.5 cm).

Size: For the best fit, be sure to measure across your chest and refer to the pattern guidelines.

This striking and functional knit is perfect for layering in cooler months or making a fashionable statement in any season. Download the Circle Vest pattern today and elevate your knitting repertoire!
