"Juniper is an unbelievably soft, wrap-style vest; perfect for warding off chill. This pattern was inspired as an eco-friendly alternative to a poly fleece vest. Because it’s knit with plush yarn full of texture, the design is clean, simple, and quick! Start with the upper back a la Cocoknits Method, and knit down to the underarm. Each front is picked up along the shoulder slopes and knitted separately down to the underarm where everything is joined and finished seamlessly. Wear it open or add a cord to overlap the fronts and tie it closed." - Cocoknits

Important Note: The Juniper pattern has two different gauge options. If you are knitting with Lambkin, refer to the sizing info for 9st / 4", pick your size, and swatch to find your needle size to get this gauge. Then, follow the directions for this size. Note that the yardage requirements for both gauges are the same, they just correspond to a different gauge and different finished measurements.
