This boy take after his Dad and loves anything construction. He has his own toolbox, tools, tool belt, tool bench, and hard hat. The only thing he was missing was the construction vest. Can I tell you how much he loves wearing it? He wears it everywhere which I don't mind because it is also very easy to spot him anywhere!
Because of the attention and comments this vest receives when we do go out, I wanted to share the pattern I created for others to enjoy. The pattern for this construction vest was designed to fit children ages 3 - 7. I would recommend adjusting the length of the vest for children ages 3 - 4.
So, what will you need to make this construction vest?
