Description
The Linen Vest is a modern spin on a sleeveless vest, with strongly defined Half-Twisted Rib bordering the side seams, armholes, and neckline. Wear it alone in Summer, or throw on over a crisp white shirt when the temperature plummets.
This pattern includes two options: either with holes to lace up with ribbon, or without holes to sew up. I love the flash of skin that the lace up version gives, and used a sheer black chiffon ribbon (that I whizzed up on my sewing machine, using some leftover fabric and my rolled hem sewing machine foot!)
I used the Long Tail cast on technique because it gives a pretty and stable right side edge and Jenny’s Stretchy Bind Off to cast off the neckline stitches, to give a nice stretchy edge. For the buttonholes, I used a Basic Knit cast off and the Backwards Loop cast on as they are easy and don’t stretch out of shape.

To make Linen Vest you will need: 663 (718, 825, 938, 1058, 1185, 1335, 1465, 1608) metres of Cotton DK yarn with approx 14 wraps per inch, equivalent to approximately 6 (6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13) x50g balls of yarn (yarn estimates are approximate.)I used 7 balls of Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK in Misty Grey for the size medium., 2x 1.5m lengths of 2.5cm wide ribbon (optional - for the versions with laced sides. If you’re making the version with side seams, you don’t need this!), Measuring Tape, Scissors & Sewing Needle, Stitch Holder/Scrap Yarn. Tools required: 8mm (US 11) circular knitting needles with a 50-100cm long cable, OR 8mm straight & circular needles with a 40cm long cable (or size needed to get tension.) * I like to use circular knitting needles with long cables for all of my projects -when you don’t have enough stitches to fit the cable, use the Travelling Loop technique!.
