Construction Information: A classic top-down, boxy-fit vest with an easy-to-knit front panel design. Short rows are used to enhance the fit of the shoulders and to provide a higher back neck. The garment is knitted flat at the beginning, joined at the underarm and then knitted in the round. The front incorporates the stately Christmas tree by using a simple puff stitch, and a decorative lace tree topper. If you feel extra creative, adding a bit of embroidery to decorate the tree will make it extra special.

This is a hand-dyed yarn which means there may be variations in color throughout a single skein and from skein to skein therefore it is a great idea to alternate skeins while knitting. You will see variation in color in this yarn.

As always, it is important to manage gauge to ensure you will have enough yarn. Please remember that every effort is taken to represent the true colors of the yarn and that monitor settings will vary.
