{"product_id":"minuet-vest-crochet-pattern-by-vashti-braha","title":"Minuet Vest","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe basic idea of the Minuet Vest is crochet a simple shape, add a fancy border, then seam the sides to turn it into a vest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI chose plain filet crochet lace for the basic U-shape so that it would be quick to crochet. Filet is also an easy grid for edging with a fancy border later.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith just two skeins of a casual daytime cotton yarn, this summery vest can be thrown on over anything and look great. Use a polished-looking mercerized cotton and the silky gloss suddenly takes the same design into an elegant Jane Austen-style world. The dramatic architecture of the lace is unforgettable over solid black.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis pattern explains step by step how to use a type of Tunisian Knit Treble stitch for the filet, like I used for the red Minuet shown. For the cropped yellow version I used regular crochet stitches (treble crochet + ch-2 filet). This pattern uses the Tunisian filet stitches, but you could substitute with regular filet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChains and single crochets are the only stitches needed\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LoveCrafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56749244514682,"sku":"UPID40355","price":6.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/3219\/4170\/files\/0427ed0a754060f8fe50bdc1ef519d78b82ed49f_UPID40355_172856815338792.jpg?v=1775907796","url":"https:\/\/www.lovecrafts.com\/en-us\/products\/minuet-vest-crochet-pattern-by-vashti-braha","provider":"LoveCrafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
