Versatile waistcoat offers an attractive lace pattern, subtle waist shaping and a touch of sparkle
This lacy waistcoat by Sarah Hatton is the sort of garment that will suit almost anybody, and will become one of those useful layering pieces in your wardrobe that can be dressed up or down, depending on your mood. Sarah says: “I love the simplicity of this lace pattern and the sparkle of the yarn makes it a great item for evening wear, although I think it would look as lovely in a simple plainer yarn for a daytime look.”
Sarah's waistcoat is designed to fit eight UK dress sizes, from size 8 (to fit bust 81cm) to size 22 ( to fit bust 117cm). You'll find our knitting abbreviations here.
