New creation! Doesn’t this look like the vest I borrowed from my sister the other day? The difference is that it has an open back. I like this way better.. what do you think?
I added this to my etsy shop today.
Outfit detail: Tank indio (japanese cheap brand), skirt handmade, belt my sister’s, sandals bandolino. I’m wearing this polka dot skirt here and here also.
Do you wanna know how I made this vest?
Tada!
rectangle and a small hole in the middle :p

Cute! The front looks like the cardigan I'm making without sleeves. 🙂

mer3kat says
omfg that is soo cute :]]
It looks just like ur sisterss
Imma try to make one
How big is the rectangle though
and how big did you make the hole
:]
chie says
hi mer3kat, i forgot how big it was… i think it is 60cm in length, but width, not sure. should be long enough to wrap you around so it will drape nicely. i made a hole 13cm from the top, not sure how big it is, it should be big enough that your shoulders go through. i recommend adjusting it as you try it on. hope this helps!
Caroline says
Really liked this one too! I'm gonna try one tomorrow if I find the time! =) It's an elastic fabric right?
TaRa says
so clever! I´ve just found your site and really like it.
Katrina says
That is so clever!! Love it! It looks awesome and you’d never know it was just a rectangle with a hole. Thanks for sharing it!
Sydney says
I really like this! Solo comfy and cute!
I want a little more back in mine, should I just make the hole smaller?
Chie says
Hi Sydney! Thank you! What do you mean by “a little more back”? If you make the hole too small, you might not be able to put the shoulders in.
