I designed this vest for my friend to celebrate her milestone birthday. Naturally, this vest was named after her!

Glendy Vest is mostly knitted flat from the hem up. Neckband and armholes are knitted in the round. When the back and font pieces are complete, seams on the shoulders and on both sides of the torso are sewn together. The cable motif is on both the front and back pieces. The pattern is charted only.
