The Dyvest is a versatile unisex vest featuring an eye-catching cable stitch pattern that runs gracefully down the front. The unique Y-shaped staghorn cable elegantly divides into two charming half-staghorn stitches on either side of the chic V-neck, lending itself to the name Dyvest. This design not only showcases sophisticated knitting techniques but also adds a stylish touch to any wardrobe.
Knitters of all levels will appreciate that the staghorn and half-staghorn stitches are straightforward to work with, requiring just three rows of cable combined with plain wrong-side rows. For those who prefer written instructions, rest assured that both charts and detailed written directions are provided within the pattern. This makes it easy for you to follow along and create your very own Dyvest.
The vest features a thoughtful construction method, being knit from the bottom up in the round until reaching the armholes, at which point the fronts and back are knitted flat. The shoulders are artfully joined using the three-needle bind-off technique, ensuring a clean and professional finish. After completing the main body, you’ll pick up stitches to knit the armbands and neckbands, giving the vest a polished look.
