Folk Vests: 25 Knitting Patterns and Tales from Around the World by Cheryl Oberle offers a charming blend of craft instruction and cultural storytelling. This illustrated paperback presents a variety of knitting patterns for sleeveless sweaters, waistcoats and folk-inspired vests, each accompanied by a short narrative that highlights its regional roots.

The 144‑page volume draws from Scandinavian knitwear, Fair Isle traditions, and other ethnic knitting styles, making it a useful reference for both beginners and experienced knitters. Oberle’s clear step‑by‑step directions are paired with vivid photographs that bring each pattern to life.

Published in 2002 by Interweave Press, the book sits comfortably in the art & culture, fashion and crafts & hobbies sections, appealing to young adults and adults alike who love needlework, cultural history and design. Its paperback format is in good condition, ready to inspire new projects and global knitting adventures.
