***Listing is for Pattern Only, not a finished item***

This eye-catching plaid vest is fit for a day in the woods. The checkered patterning is created by working two colors in one row and working over the nonworking color. There are no floats or pesky yarn ends with this color-changing method. The pattern is written in a wide range of sizes so it can be worn by men and women.

This double layered, zipper front vest uses basic stitches and a very simple construction. If you’ve never added a zipper to a crochet project before, don’t fret…it’s super simple and there’s a photo tutorial included to help!

Kids Version: The Kids version is available in my shop here on Etsy and includes sizes: 12m, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14/16 years.

There is a complete size chart and instructions included to help you with custom sizing if your intended wearer doesn’t fit into the “standard” measurements.

Finished Size 38 (42, 46, 50, 54)“ chest circumference.

Yarn Notes: Lion Brand Wool Ease Worsted was used for the traditional buffalo plaid vest in the photos. Other similar yarns may be substituted as long as gauge is met. Lion Brand Yarns Wool-Ease (80% acrylic, 20% wool; 197 yd/3 oz)

Vest is an A Crocheted Simplicity original design.
