The Design
This is the ultimate layering piece with an easy fit for many body types. The cap sleeve vest works as a vest, jacket, cardigan, blazer and more. It has a straight shape, features hidden front pockets with large flaps and snap buttons for closing at the front.
The pattern includes both a lined and an unlined version.
Recommended Fabrics
A medium weight fabric is recommended, but this is a versatile pattern that will suit almost any fabric. Lining is optional, depending on the fabric you choose.
The dark navy vest is sewn in heavy weight wool.
Sizing
XS-L; XL-3XL.
The straight and medium-wide shape gives an easy fit, so use your chest and seat measurement for sizing.
Supplies and Notions
Thread, snaps/press fasteners or sew-in buttons (6), fusible interfacing.
Level of Difficulty
Advanced. However it can be transformed to an easier version in no time if you skip the lining and use sew-on snap buttons or even skip the buttons too for your first attemp.

This pattern comes carefully packaged in an envelope together with step-by-step sewing instructions.
