I downloaded this on Etsy and we can’t seem to figure out how to close the vectors. I’ve tried drawing a line and connect it, but it didn’t work.
Since you purchased the file can’t you contact the folks who sold it to you?
I did contact him, he’s looking into it. I just thought I’d reach out here see if someone knew. Could maybe speed up the process. But yes you’re correct I don’t know why he would be selling SVGs with open vectors.
We need the file to help out.

Inkscape is free, and you can use it to close vectors. Here’s a tutuorial I found on how to do it: Inkscape Tips: Combining two distinct paths to form a closed shape - YouTube
These lines are not connected:
they are intended only to do/only suited for no-offset contours so as to serve their purpose in this design.
You could export the vectors to a 3rd party tool and expand the strokes as discussed at:
