Aldgate Vest – Project Kit
This wonderful vest has been designed for us by Emma Vining, using our Tamar DK Lustre Blend. Emma says she was inspired by looking upwards from ground level in urban areas and getting a new perspective to architectural features. The lower section has a twisted stitch pillar pattern. The pillars then divide to form the canopy on the upper body. The vest is worked in two pieces from the bottom up, and has shallow cap sleeves.
Your kit will contain the pattern and sufficient skeins of Tamar DK for your chosen size, and is presented in one of our cotton Blacker Yarns tote bags. The sample is knitted in Red River, but you can pick from any of our lovely Tamar shades.
The pattern comes in 11 sizes – from 30 to 50 inch bust. See below for more details on measurements.
