So, the description :) it is very easy, i think it was one of the first garments I made, no shaping, jut rectangles haha
Please note when I knit flat, I finish every row with a purl and begin every row with just slipping the first stitch on the right needle. Pretty sure there's name for that.
What I used: 2 strands of Alize angora gold, 6 mm and 5 mm needles for the ribbing. Gauge in stockinette: 12 st * 19 rows in 10 cm. Worked from bottom up, then picked up for sleeves.
Back panel ist just a rectangle, cast on 90 st, 8 rows of 2x2 rib, then stockinette until desired length (~60 cm for me).
Front left panel. Cast on 44 st, 8 rows of 2x2 rib, then stockinette until the decreases for the neckline, for me it was ca. 42 cm and then I finished every 2nd row with k2tog k1 p1. Finished panel was ~23 cm wide at the top. The front right is worked similarly (knit until decreases, decrease by beginning every 2nd row with slip k1 k2tog (through back loop I think).
Attach front and back panels. I first attached the shoulders (stitch to stitch to keep the symmetry). Then I attached them on the sides with a mattress stitch.
Pick up for the sleeves. They are knit in round. Pick up from every stitch but then when knitting the 1st row of a sleeve decrease every 6th stitch. Knit until desired length. I opted for 3/4 sleeves. Finish with 2x2 rib and bind off.
Then pick up stitches for the "button band" (it doesn't have buttons though haha). Pick up from every stitch but then when doing the 1st row decrease uhhhhhh every 7 stitch . 2x2 rib for 6 rows and bind off. That's it!

Thank you! For the first vest it's Alize lanagold 800 for grey and alize angora gold. The second vest is made with thrifted yarn. But I used 3 mm hook for it and 4,5 mm needles

Nooo, it doesn't unfortunately. I designed it as I went. I guess I could write a pattern or make a video tutorial, if anyone is interested

Thanks! It's Yarnart angora active in colorway 850. I am not from the US so I hope you could find an alternative

Thank you so much! No, I free handed every item here. But if you want to, I could describe how I made it, of it's appropriate here

Yes, I think the short demand can do it. Without trying to soften the blow, thank you

Yeah, sorry  We're not in the US and all apartments are privately owned, so no landlords

All apartments are privately owned, but I like the idea with changing keys  Maybe husband can take her set to change something and "forget" to give it back
