Churchmouse has designed the timeless men’s vest you’ve been asking for! The slightly high V-neck has a modern look, the ribbed armbands extend just to the shoulder’s edge, and the pattern is clearly written with tutorials for sloped bind-offs and picking up stitches . Equally right for business or casual, His Vest fits perfectly over a dress shirt or a T-shirt. Rowan Felted Tweed DK (50% Merino, 25% rayon, 25% alpaca) is a soft fiber blend with a sophisticated color palette that enhances this classic vest.
His Vest is available in 6 sizes. If you prefer ‘slim’ or ‘trim’ cut shirts, choose 1–3" of ease at the chest. If you prefer ‘regular’, ‘classic’ or ‘traditional’ shirts, choose 4–6" of ease at the chest. If your waist is somewhat larger than your chest, make sure you choose a size that gives your waist at least 1" of ease. The sizes listed below correspond to the actual measurement of the finished garment so to achieve the recommended fit, please choose a size that is the preferred number of inches larger than your chest measurement.
- Size 1: 40” finished chest circumference
- Size 2: 43” finished chest circumference
- Size 3: 46” finished chest circumference
- Size 4: 49” finished chest circumference
- Size 5: 52” finished chest circumference
- Size 6: 55” finished chest circumference
