Circular Vests Free Crochet Patterns

Due to the fact that these vests are created around mandalas, they look absolutely stunning. In addition, the color gradients complement the design very well. These vests are a bit more advanced to make, although not too difficult. If you are already familiar with mandala patterns, they are worth the effort!

Pocket Full of Posies Vest

What a delicious mix of warm colors! A cheerful vest by Dorianna Rivelli will remind you of a lazy afternoon in the garden. This is a simple project with a great color scheme, but feel free to choose your favorite.

Spring Sun Mandala Vest

This long vest designed by Nadia Fuad is light and airy. I just love the way that the tail fans out showing off the delicate mandala. You can still achieve that ombre effect with brighter colored yarn, so try it out.
