Cozy Comfort V Neck Vest

The Comfort V-Neck Vest is a simple, versatile crochet layering piece for kids. With its classic V-neck and comfortable fit, it can be worn over a shirt or top, or layered under a coat or sweater for extra warmth. The colors can be easily customized for boys or girls. It can also be made in a solid color with contrasting ribbing. I was planning to make a modern, color block cushion with the Furls Wander Yarn . When I received the yarn, I just fell in love with it. It's very soft, smooth and has satin like finish. I thought that it is more suitable for garments and I decided to design a basic V neck vest in kids sizes. And I am glad I did. The yarn creates beautiful garment that has great drape. There are so many colors to choose from. Get a print friendly pdf here .
