Ladies Waistcoats in King Cole Drifter Chunky (4607)

Two comfortable cabled waistcoats which are the perfect extra layer. When teamed with jeans and tees, they are ideal for town or countryside. Created using King Cole Drifter Chunky, a soft and cosy yarn which knits up quickly to produce a striped and Fair Isle appearance with an overall subtle marl. The illustration shows the Short Waistcoat in Geneva and the Long Waistcoat in Como, though they would both look equally good in other shades in the range – and there are plenty to choose from. Both waistcoats have dropped shoulders and are knitted edge to edge in stocking stitch with double rib edgings. They have a central cabled panel on the back and the same cable pattern is repeated on the pockets. Instructions are for a wide range of sizes to fit bust 32/34 to 48/50” (81/86 to 122/127cm). To complete your waistcoats you will need 5.0 and 6.0mm (US8 and US 10) knitting needles. You will also need a cable needle.
