Description
This Kuura vest pattern is based on my favourite RTW undershirts that I bought years ago, but that I have worn out since. I tried my best to grade the pattern to sizes 32 to 48.
You need about 80 cm (32″) of merino wool knit fabric. The fabric should be very stretchy since the pattern has negative ease. You will also need stretchy lace trim about 15 mm (5/8″) wide and some ribbon for the optional bow.
The sizes of the pattern follow the chart below. If your size is different for your bust, waist and hips, choose the size based on your bust measurement and grade between the sizes. Note that the size also depends on the stretchiness of the knit you are using. If you, for instance, want to make this top out of cotton jersey with no spandex, you have to choose a bigger size.
