Another version of the crochet Pointed Hem Vest pattern I made. This one is also an opened front vest with a V neck and inverted V lines of the hem. The differences are the shaped armholes and flat-tailed back. This crochet pointed hem vest version 2 must be something to flaunt thanks to its trendy and shimmery look.

Materials: ( I used )
4mm crochet hook
Light weight/ DK yarn: silver gray color ( about 250 gr for the sample – size L / 100 gr or 328 yds per skein )
( Check out my Yarn shop – free worldwide shipping )
Yarn needle
Scissors
Note: I used chainless starting dc for every first dc of each row/ round instead of ch 3. There’s another good crochet technique to use is ch 2, dc into the same stitch ( counted as 1st dc). In the pattern below you’ll see I simply state dc into 1st stitch for every first dc of each row/ round, so choose your best technique 🙂
Special stitches used:
V stitch: ( dc, ch1, dc ) into same stitch or space.
2dc – V stitch: ( 2dc, ch1, 2dc ) into same stitch or space.
