Pattern Yams oversize vest 3-12 years
Yams is a buttoned vest or zipped jacket pattern with an oversized volume and low armholes for a little retro everyday look. Bomber collar or large enveloping hood, buttoned or zipped version, kangaroo or cloud patch pockets, it's up to you to sew the version you like. On the sewing side, we have studied numerous assembly possibilities to be able to offer you a version that is easy to make and has neat finishes. The vest is therefore lined at the front and back busts for a result as pretty on the outside as on the inside.

Main Fabric
Designed to be made in knit, Yams will be just as great in sweatshirts as in quilted jersey or in sherpa fabric for a warm and cozy jacket to wear on cool days. To be made in plain or colorblocks to give it even more style, it is a very accessible sewing project that children will wear every day.

Lining fabric
If your main fabric is thick (sherpa type), we advise you to opt for a light jersey lining. If your sweatshirt is quite light, you can use the same fabric for the lining.
