Since I have a nephew (yay!) and all my friends are having boys, I get to finally make boy stuff. I think I’ll like the break from pink for a little while.
I was browsing around on the net and couldn’t quickly find a free sweater vest pattern that I liked so I created this one. This vest is nice as it is or makes a wonderful canvass for a tummy design. I made it a bit longer than what would be considered the norm for a 3 month old because my nieces and nephew seem to be longer in the torso than most patterns allow for…or they wear their pants low. I intend to adjust this pattern for larger sizes in the future.
I would consider this a novice level knit. I assume the knitter is comfortable with simple increases and decreases, picking up stitches and casting off.
Anyhooo, if you’d like to use my pattern, you can download it for free in pdf format.


Finally a boys vest pattern! I have searched high and low to no avail. When you create a larger version please please send to me.
Thanks!
I’ll get to work on a larger version for you then.
I agree..can you design one with sleeves? my grandsons (age 4 and 6) have asked me to make them one
This is exactly what I want – very simple vest – BUT in a toddler size 4 !!!! I’ve looked and looked at many links and they’re either cable or very fancy or too big!!! Thanks
Thank you! I just found your pattern and it is perfect!
