A vest / tabard / dickie hybrid with a modern wrap around shape, worked seamlessly in all-over brioche stitch. Coats and jackets have always been popular and are in current modern winter fashion too! So why not layer yourself up with some beautiful famine versitale vest this winter? This pattern uses brioche stitch worked flat and in the round, brioche increases, (optional) Italian cast on, simple short rows, i-cord bind off, and a small amount of Kitchener stitch. Videos are linked in the pattern for these techniques. The Livingstone Vest is worked seamlessly from the top down, in all-over brioche stitch. It begins with the neckband and yoke, which are worked in the round, before dividing to form the front and back. Increases are worked on the back to form ‘wings’ that wrap around to the front. These ‘wings’ are attached with either D rings or waist ties. They can be modified to be wider or narrower, and sit higher or lower, to accommodate different shapes.
