This little crochet vest is available in sizes 2-10 years and includes instructions on customising the length and shoulder strap width. It’s a pretty loose fitting vest, and perfect for jazzing up any outfit for a fashion loving little girl.
Construction
The vest is worked from the bottom up in one piece and then divides into 3 to create the 2 front panels and the back panel. The only sewing required is for the shoulder straps at the end – perfect if you are a bit averse to seaming!
Size & Fit
The sizes in this pattern are based on the body measurements as laid out by the Craft Yarn Council. The vest is pretty loose fitting; if child is between sizes (as per chest measurement), you can probably go for the smaller size, but you will have to use your own judgement here.

| Notes: | Note on yarn weight: I used a #3/DK weight yarn for my vest, but a #2/sport weight would also work great as long as you meet gauge :-) |

Had a customer reach out and ask me to make 5 of these Peaches and Cream Vests in various sizes. The pattern was easy to follow, had sizes 2-10 with measurements and worked up beautifully! Since it was taking so long with a DK bamboo yarn, I doubled the strand and it was much quicker to complete the vests. The customer love how they turned out!!! I highly recommend these adorable Vests.
