Urban Nature vest

Urban Nature vest

With a button placket, fitted cut, and tapered front sections, the top is modeled after a classic suit vest, and it works just as well for fashion: on its own or over a shirt and collar. The summery linen blend yarn COLEEN LINEN by Austermann complements the summer style. Its clean lines make it a perfect companion for urban looks—clean, modern, and versatile. With its light structure and breathable yarn, it's comfortable to wear even on hot days. It also looks particularly beautiful over a maxi dress or combined with high-waisted trousers. The back is knitted in a ribbed pattern—so it fits close to the figure without being constricting. The fine flame structure of the yarn gives it a unique, handmade charm.

The wool used, COLEEN LINEN by Austermann, is made from 60% linen, 25% cotton, and 15% viscose. This cool summer yarn has a slight flame texture. This gives the stitch pattern an interesting look; it also looks very effective when knitted simply in stockinette stitch or crocheted in simple single crochet or double crochet stitches. Thanks to the high linen content, the yarn exhibits the typical feel and feel of the natural plant fiber: cool, dry, and pleasant to the touch. COLEEN LINEN is equally suitable for knitting and crocheting and beautifully showcases both knitted and crocheted textures. It is available in eight fashionable solid colors and six vibrant, summery colors.
The easy-to-follow knitting pattern for this figure-hugging vest with a ribbed back in sizes 36/38, 40/42, 44/46, and 48/50 appears in Rebecca No. 97, Model 22. You will also need 4 mm and 4.5 mm knitting needles, a 3.5 mm crochet hook, and four 18 mm mother-of-pearl buttons.
