Naturally Vienna Draped Vest - FC 56

I saw this really cute draped vest pattern somewhere online - cannot remember where, unfortunately.  Just had to make it, although finding the yarn was difficult and, again, I cannot remember where I purchased it but probably from New Zealand or England, but it could have been from Elann in Canada.  This a Naturally branded yarn by the name of Vienna, in an Aran weight.  It is a tweed that is 67 percent wool and 33 percent acrylic with a luxurious hand.  It requires hand-washing and drying flat.

This was a very fast project to knit.  It has only 3 pattern pieces, since it's a vest.  The fronts are the main parts, since they wrap all the way to the back, under the arms, and then connect to the center back panel.  The colllar has extensions; the pattern says to make them 5.5 inches for a medium.  That is an error.  It would make an 11-inch back neck.  I made the extensions 2.75 inches each and grafted the stitches together at the center back of the neck, reversing the grafting for the rolled edge, then attaching the extensions to the back neck.

The colorway I chose was Shade 608, which is tans, browns and off-white.
