Modern Vest – Alpaca Yarns Pattern 1146 (Printed Pattern)

A simple, modern layering piece with clean lines and a soft, brushed finish.
The Modern Vest is a relaxed, sleeveless style that knits up quickly in Alpaca Yarns Indiecita Baby Brushed Alpaca — a luxuriously soft 14 ply yarn with a light, fluffy halo. It features a flattering V-neck, ribbed trims, and a soft drape that makes it perfect for layering over shirts, long sleeves, or dresses through the cooler months.
