I published the 2T Vest #1 knowing I had more than enough materials to make at least one more vest. Well here it is!I like this one even more than the first, but wear both constantly. The vest is so simple to make without a pattern, by using a couple of Goodwill knit shirts and a little left over black knit. The altered neckline in this version flatters using various fabric scraps.
The front hem has a diagonal cut. The piece removed added to the back continues the diagonal theme.
I just filled in with a hem/ruffle made up from one of the purchased shirts. I didn’t have enough of the existing curly serged hem so I just made some extra to match. The stencil mimics the print and ties the three fabrics together.
It’s warm, washable and has a pocket making this vest perfect for hanging around the house or running errands. Love it!
I love these vests . . . are they your personal garments? Might they be purchasable? Looking forward to more more more 🙂
I have been wearing these so much I would not feel right selling them. However, if I keep sewing at this rate I may get ahead of my wardrobe needs at some point. I’ll keep you posted!
