Maria Vest
Join Furls Crochet and April Gopwani of OTH Crochet Nook for their August 2020 CAL. This month we are making the beautiful and lacy Maria Vest. The Maria Vest is an easy detailed crochet vest that will be a perfect addition to your wardrobe. See schedule and details below.
The Maria Vest crochet pattern has simple stitches that leave a gorgeous detail in every row. It’s a perfect beginner pattern that includes repeated stitches and mindless crocheting – the perfect project while you watch your favourite show.
This pattern will be memorized quite easily after the first few rows making this such a fun and easy Summer project.

Notes before you begin
-this pattern is made up of two identical long panels.
-at the beginning of each row, the CH 2 counts as the first stitch.
-the last DC at the end of every row can be tricky to find, make sure to look for the top of the CH 2 from the previous row (your rows will always begin and end with 5 DC)
-each row is identical with the same stitches, there is no wrong side or right side of the panel.
-In part one of the pattern, you will complete both panels
-Part two will consist of putting the vest together: panels will be laid out side by side, and the back will be seamed together
-wide armholes will be created by seaming down each side.
-a diagram is included at the end of this pattern to show you exactly how to seam this vest together.
-the pattern is written for size XS/S/M, for size L/XL: see initial chain in ( ).
-the vest fits oversized and comfortable
-blocking is suggested once project is complete. (or before seaming together)
