So cosy and soft vest made with 3 unique patterns
Hello My Crochet Friends!
You know me, I love loop yarns, they are so soft and fun to work with! There are many different style and brands and so many colors!
For this project I chose ALIZE PUFFY yarn!
In this my new video tutorial I will teach you how to make 3 different pattern on very cosy and soft vest!
The project is super easy and very quick. You can easily adjust the vest to bigger or smaller, use any colors you like and make a wonderful piece for your Spring wardrobe!
This pattern is made for beginners - NO crocheting skill level is required to make it. If you don't understand any of my instructions, don't worry I am here for you.

SO COSY AND SOFT VEST MADE WITH 3 UNIQUE PATTERNS HAND KNITTED
MATERIAL
ALIZE PUFFY
1 BALL: 100g / 9 m
https://www.vlnika.cz/z11642-prize-puffy
For the vest you will need: 3 skeins: 3 colors
Scissors
Sewing/Embroidery and yarn needle/tapestry needle
In the video tutorial, we will show you the entire process from the beginning, from the basic chain to the heart, the chessboard and the lines pattern up to joining the panels together.
We will create a beautiful bag from 3 BALLS!
Let's start or PIN this idea to your Pinterest boards for later.
PATTERN NOTES:
SIZE: one size, XS size
Back panel: 38 cm wide / 66 cm long
Front panel: 20 cm wide / 66 cm long
Front panel top part: 12 cm wide
Neckopening: 14 cm
If you want the vest to be wider or longer, adjust the number of loops in the basic chain and/or the number of rows.
We will knit the back part as 1 large rectangle in rows from down to top.
We also knit the front parts in rows from down to top, but the last part is narrowed, we will make a V-neckline.
The front and back parts are connected at the sides and at the shoulders.
We do not turn the work, we always work so that the front, right side is towards us.
The back part is simple, without a pattern, we knit a loop into a loop.
Make sure that your loops are not twisted and that they always go in one direction.
We have 18 loops in each row.
We will knit a rectangle of 30 rows in total
Color A: 9 rows
Color B: 10 rows
Color C: 11 rows
FRONT PANEL
STEP 1) COUNT FOUNDATION CHAIN
For this VEST, start with 10 loops.
If you would like to have a larger VEST, you can start with more loops and then have more loops in each row.
We knit with our hands, no hook or needle is needed, it is quick and easy.
STEP 2) FOUNDATION CHAIN
This VEST uses all stocking stitches.
Start working at beginning of yarn, make a knot, take the second loop from the knot and putt it in the first loop from back to front and pull it down.
Continue this way: working across the foundation loops, take the next loop in your working yarn and pass it through previous / just finished stitch from back to front. Continue with the next loop in the working yarn and the next loop in the foundation loop chain. Work your way all the way across.
Make 10 loops foundation chain of one color.
STEP 3) STOCKING STITCH FIRST ROW and NEXT ROWS
We work in rows.
Start stocking in just finished stitch/ last stitch in foundation chain, take the next loop in the working yarn and pull it through the previous / just finished st, then continue by taking the next loop in your working yarn and putting it through the previous stitch/loop from back to front and pulling up.
Make sure you have 10 loops in each row.
We return to the beginning (to the "knot").
Do not forget that we have to always start to pass the first to the last stitch in the previous row.
LP we always start the next row by knitting again to the last stitch from the previous row.
We now have 10 loops in a row.
Make sure you have 10 loops in each row.
STEP 4) SHAPE HEART PATTERN
We knit a loop into a loop, there are 10 loops in each row.

BF - we PULL the loop from BACK to FRONT
FB - we PULL the loop from FRONT to BACK

R10: 1. LP into LP on back panel’s side - on the same row, Leave LP loosely
3 LP FB, 3 LP BF, 3 LP FB, 1 LP BF
We connect all the loose loops on the sides – start knitting from the loop in row R1 gradually up loop to loop, we knit the second loop to the first, the third to the second, etc.
STEP 6) SHAPE THE V-NECKLINE WITH LINES PATTERN
We knit a loop into a loop, there are 10 loops at the beginning and 6 loops at the end.
Abbreviations:
BF - we PULL the loop from BACK to FRONT
FB - we PULL the loop from FRONT to BACK

1 LP BF in each LP from previous part
R2: alternate 1 LP BF, 1 LP FB till end of row
R3: alternate 1 LP FB, 1 LP BF till end of row
R4: decreasing - pull LP through the first and the second loop, then alternate 1 LP BF, 1 LP FB till end of row (9 LP)
R5: alternate 1 LP FB, 1 LP BF, 1 LP BF in last LP
R6: decreasing - pull LP through the first and the second loop, then alternate 1 LP FB, 1 LP BF till end of row (8 LP)

Join the loops in a chain from the side towards the neckline.
