This is the vest I have been dreaming of for years—with great fit, mesmerizing streams of cables, and tilted front edges. I offer it in one adaptable size that suits a wide range of people. I do not expect you to believe how adaptable the size is until you see for yourself! There are also lots of tips for modifying the fit and playing with style.

If you knit your vest with Frog Tree Ewetopia, or a good substitute (see above), and match my gauge, you are likely to be very happy with the basic size, shown on the next page making itself comfortable on a young girl, an average woman, and a Botticellian beauty. Also see the mid-length vest on page xx and the longer vest on page xx, both on a variety of people. At my island knitting retreats several hundred knitters, with the range of bodies one might expect among that many people, have tried on the three basic size Ewetopia vests you see in the photographs, and all but a handful have decided to that was the size for them.
