GLNMRAVST-LASC50H4-8
This fair isle V-neck vest is designed with a palette of six colours to create a pretty slip-over, featuring deep ribbing at the waist. Floral and classic Fair Isle motifs (such as the OXO pattern, and bands of traditional smaller motifs) take us away to Scotland, to meet our destiny in a magical valley in the Highlands. This vest is the perfect layering accessory – it combines a pop of colour for dim autumn days with fun vintage flair. The back and front are worked flat from the bottom up, and the neckband and armhole bands are picked up and knit to finish.

In Stock Yarns: We will pick and ship your in-stock yarn as soon as possible, within a few business days. Please note that if your order also includes dyed-to-order yarns you will need to allow up to 1 - 2 weeks for us to dye and ship your yarn.
Working with Hand Dyed Yarn:While we strive for consistency, due to the hand dye process variations may exist between (and with some colourways within) dye lots. Therefore it is important to order sufficient yarn for your project, and if a uniform result is preferred we suggest alternating skeins. We hope that you will value and appreciate the beautiful and unique creations of the hand dye process and are always happy to assist you in working with hand dyed yarns!
