Sleeveless Vest - Free Knitting Pattern (Beginners)

I published a new tutorial for easy beginner knitting: a women's wool vest.
This basic sleeveless top feels so nice and comfortable! It took just a few days to finish it. I like the way the triangle edge came out.
You do not need a lot of yarn for this design. The pattern is good for many sizes ranging from XS to plus sizes (1XL to 4XL).

Knit a Sweater Tunic - Beginner Level

A new knit that looks and feels so good!

An easy-to-knit sweater tunic in double moss stitch and stockinette. Two identical rectangular pieces for the front and the back allow for some waist shaping thanks to the reverse stockinette at the outer edges of the middle section.

No neck shaping is necessary as the tunic has a boat neck feature.
The gauge is 12 sts in 4''/10 cm with #9 (5.5mm) needles, so this top can be finished quickly. You can find the free knitting pattern for this garment on

Vest Easy to Knit for Beginners - Free Knitting Pattern

I just finished my new project that took just a few days from start to finish.

Red Knit Top Women's - Free Knitting Pattern Beginners

The vest is knitted in the simple garter stitch and I am pleased with its look and feel.
I made it out of soft medium-weight cotton yarn, but this design is good for other kinds of the same weight yarn too (wool or acrylic).
I published this new knitting pattern for this easy women's vest on my website:
