Leaves Pattern Knitting Stitch

I am finishing a women's vest using the below leaves pattern.

I will publish a free knitting pattern as soon as it is finished.

This pattern is for advanced knitters as it takes a lot of your attention and knitting skills.

BUT the result is quite nice and rewarding!
