178 Greenwood Cabled Vest

This is the perfect vest for fall, conjuring images of apple orchards and pumpkins, and a very classic look, perfect with jeans and a turtleneck or a T-shirt.  The V-neck scoops low, lengthening the body, while simple lace and cable motifs create a great line.  Five buttons complete it, or stitch the placket closed and apply buttons as decoration only and it’s a pullover.
