Cozy Comfort V Neck Vest

  This is a charming, color block V neck vest with simple shaping. It has 3” positive ease. 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 .
