Clever Chevy is a fitted cap or slouch knit with a combination of hand-painted sock yarn and a small amount of a contrast color (solid or tone on tone).

The stitch pattern hints of "crochet," but it isn’t. It is a simple, four-row/round repeat. Plus, the vest is knit from the top down, and in the round, so there are no seams. There aren’t even any seams on the tops of the shoulders!

This is a completely re-designed pattern based on the “look” of Le Slouch that was originally available by me. This time, it has been completely re-written and edited to be top down instead of bottom up, and since it is in a worsted weight, it will be a great stash-buster project.
