Description
The Truudi Vestover is a classic vest with a turtleneck, saddle shoulders and a slightly wider body.
It is worked seamlessly from the top down in stockinette stitch.
The neckline is shaped with German Short Rows, while right- and left-leaning increases are used to create the saddle shoulders. The front and back are then worked separately in rows to the bottom of the armholes. They are joined and the body is finished in the round. A narrow rolled edge completes the hem.
Stitches for the armhole edgings are picked up around the shoulders and sides and worked in the round.
The length of the Truudi Vestover can be adjusted individually.
