Itch to Stitch Envigado vest, my version, got maybe a bit too much body for summer but I'm sure it will come in useful. Relatively easy to do as well, although I added a lining.

Very nice - you seem to be particularly good at that sort of garment - remembering your recent jacket.

Probably a thing I have with zips, love them. I've bought another Waffle pattern for later this year, a coat that she has altered to accommodate a zip, I've already got the fabric, getting it done before next winter, well maybe.

It's really nice. Something I never think to make is outerwear. Yours is lovely.

@Gernella
did you shorten it? I have some reversible red/blue softshell so will be making another one soon and will try and get the length so I can put the waist draw string in this time.

I knocked around a good two inches off
@sewmuchmore
and then dropped the band so it just hits above the pocket flap. I'm only 5'3", well I was but I know you shrink when you get older. Trouble is I don't wear trousers and most of my skirts are quite colourful and patterned, plain might have been a better fabric to use.
