Create a modern, architectural sleeveless vest with this versatile digital sewing pattern.

* Layering over T-shirts, shirts, and lightweight knits

✂️ Customisation Tip:
Skip the waistband straps for a clean, boxy look, or use them to draw in the waist subtly. This design also works well with contrasting fabrics for the waistband, highlighting the vest’s structure.

As always, it's impossible to give fabric amounts for every fabric type and every size. For clarity, I provide yardage for both the smallest and largest sizes, based on a suitable fabric width. To stay on the safe side, you may follow the largest cutting layout for any other size.
