How to Knit Knotted Beads Pattern Vest

Step 1: Gather Your Materials

Before you begin knitting, gather the following materials:

Size 8 knitting needles

Four skeins of worsted weight yarn in your preferred color

A tapestry needle

Scissors

Step 2: Cast On Stitches

Using the long-tail cast on method, cast on 80 stitches using one of the knitting needles. This will be the back of your vest.

Step 3: Create the Knotted Beads Pattern

The knotted beads pattern is a beautiful and intricate design that will make your vest stand out. To create the pattern, you'll need to follow the chart you've printed out:

Rows 1-4: Knit all stitches

Rows 5-8: Purl all stitches

Rows 9-12: Knit all stitches

Rows 13-16: Follow the knotted beads pattern chart (the white squares represent knit stitches, while the black squares represent purl stitches)

Repeat rows 1-16 until the back piece measures 12 inches from the cast on edge.

Step 4: Create the Front Pieces

Using the second knitting needle, create two front pieces that are identical to the back piece, but with a neckline cutout. To create the cutout, knit the first 35 stitches, bind off the next 10 stitches, and then knit the remaining 35 stitches.

Step 5: Join the Pieces Together

Using the tapestry needle, seam the front pieces to the back piece at the shoulders and sides.

Step 6: Finish the Vest

Once the vest is seamed together, continue knitting the knotted beads pattern for another 3 inches. Then, bind off all stitches and weave in the ends using the tapestry needle.

And that's it! You now have a stunning and unique knotted beads pattern vest that is sure to turn heads. Wear it with pride and enjoy the compliments you'll receive on your beautiful creation.
