From Straight Stitch Designs:
MAGNUSON is fashion meets function with a button placket and stand collar. Magnuson has the classic lines of a military vest with modern elements like side slits and oversized pockets, not to mention the gathered waist. The inside is just as beautiful as the outside with flat felled seams throughout resulting in no exposed edges.
Sew MAGNUSON up in a twill for a structured vest, perfectly paired with jeans and a t-shirt for an elevated every day outfit. Or sew your vest in a tencel twill or linen for a relaxed look that can be styled with shorts and a tank top or thrown over a favourite knit dress. You may not have thought you needed a vest in your wardrobe, but I assure you there are a million ways to wear it so it’s really a matter of which version to sew first.
