To find the pattern for this great pattern on Ravelry and get the yarn to make it down below!
Penny is a seamless vest that is knit in one piece from side to side. The pattern is written for 5 different yarn weights: fingering, sport, dk/light worsted, worsted/aran, and bulky, so you can use whatever yarn you like (yardage required for each yarn weight is listed below). Simple, quick and versatile, Penny is a relaxing knit that will make a perfect light layering piece.
Sample photographed is size small and uses 2 skeins of Knit One Crochet Too’s Soie et Lin (a silk/linen blend) in the Cumin colorway. To acheive a similar drape, I recommend using a yarn with fiber content such as linen, cotton, silk, bamboo, cashmere, alpaca, etc.
