Penny

$5.50

Penny is a seamless vest that is knit in one piece from side to side. The pattern is written for 5 different yarn weights: fingering, sport, dk/light worsted, worsted/aran, and bulky, so you can use whatever yarn you like (yardage required for each yarn weight is listed below). Simple, quick and versatile, Penny is a relaxing knit that will make a perfect light layering piece. Sample photographed is size small and uses 2 skeins of Knit One Crochet Too’s Soie et Lin (a silk/linen blend) in the Cumin colorway. Check out my blog post featuring this pattern!
