The Tavalli Vest is a classic cardigan with a round neckline and a straight fit. It is designed to be worn with positive ease. Depending on your preferred style, you can knit one size smaller for a closer fit or one size larger for an extra relaxed look.

The cardigan is worked seamlessly from the top down with marked raglan increases. First, the yoke is knitted flat, then the sleeves are set aside and the body is worked back and forth. Afterwards, the sleeve stitches are picked up again and knitted in the round. Decorative decreases shape the lower part of the sleeves.

The wide button band is picked up separately and echoes the rib pattern of the cuffs. Together with the large buttons and the subtle textured pattern, the design creates a charming retro look that pairs beautifully with many outfits.
