Little Lines
Introducing the Little Lines Vest, a delightful knitting pattern designed specifically for children up to 7 years old. This charming vest is perfect for keeping your little ones cozy and stylish. The vest is worked seamlessly in the round from the lower hem all the way up to the armholes before being divided. After that, both the front and back sections are completed flat for easy handling. The unique name, "Little Lines," is derived from the captivating stitch pattern that features little lines of knit stitches gracefully set against a reverse stocking stitch background.
One of the standout features of this vest is the clever technique employed to minimize the number of purl stitches needed. By knitting the garment inside out, you can achieve the beautiful stitch pattern with ease. Upon finishing, the shoulders are seamlessly joined using a three-needle cast-off method, and then the entire garment is flipped inside out to reveal its stunning final appearance.
The Little Lines Vest comes in six distinct sizes, ensuring a perfect fit for your child as they grow:
- 0-6 months: Fits chest 16"/41cm, actual size 19"/48cm
- 6-12 months: Fits chest 18"/46cm, actual size 21"/53.5cm
- 1-2 years: Fits chest 20"/51cm, actual size 22.5"/57cm
- 2-3 years: Fits chest 22"/56cm, actual size 24.25"/61.5cm
- 4-5 years: Fits chest 24"/61cm, actual size 26"/66cm

After completing the main body of the vest, stitches are picked up around the armholes to create neat borders, as well as around the neck to construct a stylish neckband. This ensures that the vest not only looks great but also provides a comfortable fit. Perfect for everyday wear or special occasions, the Little Lines Vest is a wonderful addition to any child's wardrobe.
