This is a top down, set in sleeve opening, open front flowing vest, using a Fade-like concept to transition between colors.
using math from The Handy Book of Top Down Sweaters by AnnBudd and the measurements I used that fit well from the Meris.
starting with Wisteria, held double, for the top of the shoulders. Then switched to holding it single. Doing a combo of stockinette and linen stitch.

Rather than using a variegated yarn, I had red and white so I made stripes for the corners.
I had stockpiled some Risata before it was discontinued, and then hoarded it to find the perfect project because I wouldn’t be able to get more! With upcoming summer travel, I wanted some summer tops that fit well in the shoulders and loosely flowed down. I’m loving dresses, so I wanted to optimize the length…
I think I used all this yarn. I don’t know exact dates, but I didn’t finish them before holiday trip. how was this not in my projects yet?!!
