I designed a vest for the February-April 2009 issue of Cast On as an online extra for the Fashion Framework series. It never occurred to me that knitters would use this pattern for the Level 2 requirement of the Master Hand Knitting program since the recommended DK tweed yarn wasn’t suitable for the program. Over the years, several errors and inconsistencies have been pointed out. I have wanted to update this pattern for some time and now I can! I’ve fixed the inconsistencies and I’ve chosen one of my favorite 100% worsted wool in a light color.

While I was at it, I updated a few more things. The neck and armhole openings are deeper, it is longer and I added an additional size.
