1362 Autumn Glory - Vest Knitting Pattern for Women in Valley Yarns Ashfield
Introducing Valley Yarns Autumn Glory, a stylish and elegant vest that masterfully combines a cabled lower body with a ribbed yoke, made from the luxuriously soft Ashfield yarn.

The Autumn Glory vest is skillfully knit in the round from the hem to the underarms, where the front and back pieces are seamlessly completed separately and thoughtfully seamed at the shoulders for a polished finish.
The sleek mock turtleneck is then picked up along the neckline and worked in the round, providing a tidy finishing touch to this versatile piece. This vest is designed to elevate your autumn and winter wardrobe, making it a cozy yet fashionable choice for both casual and formal occasions. Whether you’re dressing up for a holiday gathering or layering for everyday warmth, the Autumn Glory vest is a must-have addition to your collection.
