Note
The yarn plays a significant role in this vest; it is thick and textured, with a complex composition: 13% acrylic, 17% wool, 31% polyamide, and 39% cotton.
The pattern used here is textured and not complex (the scheme is provided below). And the highlight (besides the textured yarn) is in the details.
The vest is double-breasted, with a large folding collar and a closure of two rows of concealed buttons. The upper back is interestingly linked. The seams are left exposed, with a small slit at the bottom of the back.
The armholes are finished with a 4x4 rib in the form of wings. There are slit pockets. In general, you can look at this vest for a long time; it's not just a feature, but an entire "pound of raisins."
