Glitter vest is knitted from the top down. First the shoulder part of the back piece is knitted, and then the front pieces. The back piece and front piece are gathered under the armhole to form the body, which is knitted in the round. The entire vest is knitted in stocking stitch except for the ends of the body and armholes. Glitter vest is knitted in double thread Tilia together with one thread Paia.

It is a good idea to knit a test piece before you start to check that the knitting tension is correct. Note that the knitting tension is stated after rinsing.

Size guide

Glitter vest should have a range of motion of approx. 5 - 10 cm in relation to your chest measurement. Chest measurement of approx. 80 - 85 (85 - 90) 90 - 95 (95 - 100) 100 - 110 (110 - 120) cm corresponds to size XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL). This means that if you measure approx. 90 cm around the chest, you should knit a size S. Measure yourself before you start knitting. The sizes correspond to common European sizes.
