A vest is a versatile item that can instantly elevate an outfit simply by adding one extra layer.
It is also useful for adjusting body temperature during seasonal transitions and can be enjoyed throughout a long season. The book includes three full-size pattern sheets for S, M, L, and LL sizes (some designs are available in a free size).
Compared with dresses and other garments, vests require less fabric and do not require sleeve attachment, making them more affordable to create and relatively quick to sew.
The collection includes a wide variety of designs, from simple classic styles to more sophisticated statement pieces that become the highlight of an outfit.
A wonderful book for enjoying the process of making vests that are practical, versatile, and can be loved and worn for many years.
