This cardigan vest is a great oversized layering piece featuring a textured cartridge rib stitch pattern and a pop of color for some fun (and pockets!) This piece has a bit of a 70s vibe to it, so why not name it after the year I was born? 1979 is cool and cozy and features interesting yet not-intimidating techniques. Knit up in Magpie Solstice, a gorgeous merino/cotton/silk blend that has just the right amount of texture with a soft hand and beautiful drape (and an awesome palette of colors too!).
How to Pick your Size: 1979 is meant to be worn with lots of positive ease for an oversized fit. Choose a size that is approx. 10-14”/25-35 cm larger than your widest circumference (for some that may be your bust and for others it may be your hips).
Shown in size Medium, being worn with 11”/28 cm of positive ease at the hips and 18”/46 cm of positive ease at the bust - my hips are much larger than my bust, so I used my hip measurement as my guide instead of my bust.
Sizes: Small (Medium, Large)
Finished Circumference (when fronts overlap to approx back width):
44 (51, 58)”/ 112 (129.5, 147) cm
Yarn/Yardage:
Heavy DK-weight or light worsted-weight yarn, shown in Solstice by Magpie Fibers (50% Superwash Merino, 25% Cotton, 25% Silk; 100g/300 yds), broken out as follows:
