Mum made this vest using a Barbara Walker mosaic pattern. The trickiest bit was to keep the pattern going despite the neck and armhole shaping. The back of the vest is knit in a simpler color-work pattern, highlighting the lone band of Barbara's mosaic at the very bottom. The other detail in this vest is the dark-chocolate color of the neckband and armholes while the rest of the vest is knit with brown-gray and milk-chocolate. I can see this vest enjoying a fulfilling life of wear.
