Description
The Ruth vest is a unique layering piece, made from lacy flowers and with straps on the sides. Made to be worn over a tee, shirt, blouse, or dress, this design is both simple and elegant, and makes every outfit look special. Itโs optional to use mohair to create a soft, fluffy look. The flowers are joined as you go (no sewing), and the construction is quite simple, making the Ruth vest a quick and satisfying project.
The pattern consists of a beautifully designed PDF in the style of Cucurucu Crochet, as well as a clean, minimalist version for easy printing.
Save money, buy a pattern bundle! The Ruth vest pattern is also available as part of the Bestseller pattern bundle (4 patterns, 20% off) and the Lacy pattern bundle (8 patterns, 40% off).
SIZE: made to measure (meaning you can adjust it to your own measurements).
SKILL LEVEL: advanced beginner (you just need to know the basics). This pattern includes written instructions, photos of every step, illustrations, and stitch charts, so itโs very easy to follow!
LANGUAGE: English (I use US terminology).
YARN: I recommend using cotton yarn of weight 3 (Light/8ply/DK/Light worsted). Itโs optional to add mohair. I used 4 balls of Hobbii Friends Cotton 8/6 (1 ball = 50 g/105 m/115 yds) and 2 balls of Hobbii Kid Silk (1 ball = 25 g/200 m/219 yds) and I usually wear size M.
CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS: you can adjust the length of the vest and the straps. The straps can be attached to the corners, or higher up on the sides of the vest.
Enjoy crocheting!

Beautiful piece, easy to follow pattern with many diagrams and images! There is a lot of detail on how to make the flowers, I wished that there was a bit more precise information on how (which stitch exactly, more close-up images) to connect them. Overall it turned out great though ๐ I adore your crochet style!

Absolutely loved this vest! I’m a begginer who never tried a written pattern before and this one was really easy to follow, worked up fast and was easy to adjust. Will definitely be making a few more colors of Ruth’s vest!

Love the pattern! Still working on it, but it works up so fast and I love the lace-feel with a thicker yarn. Only thing I struggled with was joining the flowers together in the ch13 spaces, as it got a bit bulky and not symetrical by just slst onto the chain. Figured it out by slst into the 7th stich, and now it lays flat! Can’t wait to finish it!

Fantastic look and does come out as instructed. Even with blocking, I think the S size will still be too big, however that may also be my tension.
