What Makes the Briolette Vest Special?
The Briolette Vest gets its name from the abundance of chain stitches used in the pattern, reminiscent of the briolette chain. The author chose this playful name to highlight its unique style, and we couldn’t agree more—it’s the perfect fit!
This design is versatile, featuring three straight panels that come together effortlessly. The front panels continue from the back panel, eliminating the need for a shoulder seam, making the construction both simple and seamless.
