Knitting Pattern: Syvänne Vest (by Jennifer Brou)

The stunning patterning on the Syvänne vest was inspired by the flowing movement of water. The top is knitted from the bottom up.

The pattern for the Syvänne vest was previously published in Beloved Patterns & Vuokko knitting magazine, where the inspiration came from Vuokko’s stunning, timeless prints.
