Just like a perfectly sunny summer day, this trendy vest features a casual, effortless appeal. It is worked up in a deep open rib border and a simple cabled pattern. I Like Knitting, Aug 2017

Toss on this fun and lightweight vest to complete your outfit. Wanderlust Vest features a deep open rib border that flows smoothly into a simple cable pattern on the vest fronts. Shaping the V-neck with decreases placed along the armhole edges allows cables to continue uninterrupted up to the shoulder.
