Yarn kit for the Maggie Vest by PetiteKnit.

The Maggie Vest is a wonderfully simple vest that can also be worn as a slipover. This makes the Maggie Vest highly versatile all year round.

Knitted with Cardiff Classic Cashmere, the vest is exceptionally luxurious and soft. This delicate cashmere yarn feels wonderfully smooth and silky, even directly against the skin.

You knit your Maggie Vest seamlessly from the top down in rows. The ribbing and button band are added at the end. 

With its vertical accents and beautiful armholes, the Maggie Vest has an exceptionally flattering fit. Simply effortlessly beautiful!

Knit this modern classic—the Maggie Vest!

Size Guide

The Maggie Vest should have approximately 5 cm of positive ease. Sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) fit a body bust circumference of 75-80 (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95-100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm. The measurements of the finished vest can be found on the front page. Please note: These measurements apply only if the gauge is maintained. Measure yourself first, before beginning the actual knitting, to determine the size that fits you best. If your bust circumference (or the widest part of your body) measures 90 cm, you should choose size S. A size S vest has a bust circumference of 96 cm and would therefore have 6 cm of positive ease in this case.
