('Why plus-size specific drafting', "Many crochet vest patterns are drafted for standard sizing and don't translate well when scaled up. This pattern is drafted from the ground up for 1X-5X.")

('Materials', 'Bulky weight yarn, a large crochet hook (size N/P), and a yarn needle.')

('Construction overview', 'The vest is worked in simple rectangular panels with dropped armholes, minimizing shaping while still fitting a curvy figure well.')
