Rainier

Designed by Rachel Brockman  PATTERN NOTES  This duster-length vest is sure to be your next layering obsession. Iridescent Merino Mist creates a soft, haloed fabric that shows texture beautifully. The Rainier Vest features deep pockets and a hem adorned with micro-cables. A cozy ribbing along the front opening and armholes further contributes to the allure of this timeless piece.  This garment is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and seamed. Stitches are picked up along the front opening and armholes and worked in K2, P2 Ribbing. Patch pockets are knit separately and attached to the work; however, they line up perfectly with the patterning on the hem.  SIZES  Extra Small (Small, Medium, Large, 1X, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X)  FINISHED MEASUREMENTS  Bust (with fronts overlapping): 36 (40¾, 44, 48¾, 52, 56¾, 60, 64¾, 68)”  Length: 39 (39½, 40, 40½, 41, 41½, 42, 42½, 43)”  MATERIALS  Rozetti Yarns Merino Mist (60% viscose, 20% acrylic, 20% superwash fine merino; 50g/167 yds)  • 108 Raincloud – 6 (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15) balls  Needles: US Size 8 (5 mm) 16” circular or longer or your preferred needle for working flat or size needed to obtain gauge  US Size 7 (4.5 mm) 32” or longer circular (for Neck Edging) and set of dpns or your preferred needle for small circumference knitting (for Armhole Edging)  Notions: Tapestry needle, removable stitch markers, stitch holders or waste yarn  GAUGE  20 sts x 24 rows = 4” in St st  20 sts x 26 rows = 4” in Offset Cables patt  Save time check your gauge.  Rainier is available as part of e-book The Midtown Collection, and as an individual pattern through Ravelry.
