The Aspen Woodland Vest is the perfect layer to add to your outfit in all seasons. Bring a touch of colour and cozy in the spring, wear this vest on a cool day in the summer (or drive the air-conditioning chill away), use it to add an extra layer of warmth in the winter, or add the perfect finishing touch to a fall outfit! This vest can be worn casually as a relaxed fit over a tee, or add a closer fitting size to a button-up for a bit of professorial panache. Worked in two pieces in an all-over textured pattern then seamed, this V-necked vest is finished with ribbing picked up and worked in the round at the armholes and collar.
