This is a listing for a PDF digital product not a physical finished product. The Basic Cable Vest by ahoneyknits is a great project for someone who is looking to try cables! The cable pattern is made using a 1/1 left cross stitch throughout- other than that it's mostly knit and purl stitches which is what makes it the perfect beginner cable pattern! I also have a tutorial for the 1/1 left cross stitch on my Instagram @ahoneyknits <3 Pattern language: English Yarn Weight: Medium Weight (Category 4 - Aran/Worsted/Afghan) Yarn Brand Used for Original Vest: Brush Alpaca Silk by Drops - 140 meters/153 yards per skein Yarn Brand Suggestions: Alpaca Bloom by KnitPicks Cumulus by Fyberspates Amount of yarn needed: 4 (4) 4 (6) 6 (6) 8 (8) 8 Needles: US 10.5 - 6.5 mm circular needles / Cord length used : 32 inches Sizing: Width- Circumference around bust Length- Total length of vest XS: Width- 28''-30'' Length- 16'' S: Width- 32''-34'' Length- 16’’ M: Width- 36''-38'' Length- 16’’ L: Width- 40''-42'' Length- 17’’ XL: Width- 44''-46'' Length- 17’’ 2XL: Width- 48''-50'' Length- 18’’ 3XL: Width- 52''-54'' Length- 18’’ *4XL: Width- 56''-58'' Length- 19’’ *5XL: Width- 60''-62'' Length- 19’’ *This pattern has been tested for sizes XS-3XL.
