Rhythmic Pulse Vest & Gloves Bundle

This bundle includes both the Rhythmic Pulse Vest and the matching gloves, so you can knit the ultimate coordinated outfit!

The Vest:

Inspired by the natural ups and downs of life’s journey, the Rhythmic Pulse vest features three vertical ribs woven into contrasting horizontal stripes. It symbolizes the resilience of the human spirit: whether you are riding high or pushing through a low point, life keeps moving forward, and the surface is always within reach.

Construction:

Designed with a modern, fitted silhouette, and English-style shoulder style, this vest is worked from the top down. Starting with the back, using Japanese short rows to shape the shoulders, the back tapers from a bold, wide shoulder to a narrower back. The fronts are picked up from each shoulder, then joined at the front neck to be worked as the back. The front and back are joined at the underarm to be worked in the round, with a customizable body (straight or shaped). Finished with an elegant high-neck and strategically shaped armhole ribbing, which accentuates its contemporary silhouette.

The gloves:

A perfect companion to the Rhythmic Pulse vest, these gloves echo the same vertical waves that symbolize the constant forward movement of life. They are a beautiful reminder that no matter the pace, we are always moving forward, row by row.

Construction:

The gloves begin at the cuff with a 2x2 ribbing that flows seamlessly up the back of the hand, contrasted by a smooth stockinette background. Shaped with easy increases at the sides of the thumb gusset, the pattern lets you choose between three finger-styles to suit your taste and skill level: a quick and chic fingerless version, a cozy half-finger option, or the ultimate full-fingered glove for those who love to take their handknits all the way.

Video Tutorials:

Both include video tutorials for each advanced technique to help you navigate the pattern with confidence.

Yarn:

Both use Artisan Fibers’ “Fruity Knitting Sport” yarn.Kits for each project are available on Artisan Fibers website (starting May 22nd).
