Diana Vest is a classic vest with a round neck and buttons - knitted in luxurious cashmere with stripes of mohair.

The Diana Vest is knitted from the top down. The stitches are cast on with a provisional cast-on. First, the upper part of the back is knitted, then the shoulders of the front are knitted—one shoulder at a time. The front pieces and back are joined under the armholes, and knitting continues back and forth over all stitches until binding off.
