About the vest and pattern
The Fridag vest is a roomy and cozy sweater that is worked with cables and double moss stitch with a short cut and a deep v-neck. There is about 20cm positive ease in the pictured vest. To find the right size measure around the widest part of the upper body, add 20cm, and then select the size closest to that measurement. For a more fitted vest, only add 10 cm to the measurement. For a less cropped style, add 10 cm to the length of the body.
The sweater is worked in the round from the bottom up. The work is divided into the front and back to make the arm holes. From this point, the front and back are worked flat one at a time. Decreases are made in the center to create the neckline. When the body has been completed, the front and back pieces are seamed together at the shoulders. Then stitches are picked up around the neckline and the collar is worked in rib. Then stitches are picked up in the armholes and a few cm of rib are worked.
