527 Equilateral Vest
WEB EXCLUSIVE
"Garments," advises Neatby, "are three-dimensional structures. Seams don't have to be straight or at the sides so let's use triangle units! There are an infinite number of ways to build this vest; follow the suggested route or invent your own. Although this vest cannot be constructed from a single strip of triangles, the number of separate strips are kept to a minimum. The vest is finished with applied I-cord edging." She adds: "You must enjoy Mattress stitch seaming!" This is one of our favourite Neatbys, digitally remastered and, as usual, gloriously filled with tips and hints. 5mm/US8 needle suggested; gauge somewhat dependent on size you wish to make. An intensely rewarding pattern. A hat with similar construction is available here in a more traditional brimmed version; a beanie version is available here.
