Vest tutorial
I know the people who actually shop on Etsy are just there to steal ideas, so let me make it a little easier for you.
Start with a piece of knit fabric about 40” long and measure out two big right triangles.
put the pieces together and sew a straight stitch along one of the legs of the triangle.
now comes the tricky part: MATH!!!!
Measure 18” up from the unsewn leg of the triangle and 10” the sewn leg. Mark where the two points meet and measure 3” out from the mark on all sides. or be a nerd like me and use a protractor.
pin the pieces together and cut out the circle.
Finish the sleeves and edges if you want, but it dosent need it.
