Hastings Vest Kit

The Hastings Vest is inspired by classic colourwork garments from Shetland and Fair Isle. It makes a soft, comfortable layer that you can wear indoors in the winter without being too warm.  This is a good project for newer colourwork knitters as there is minimal shaping and no sleeves.

The kit comes with a printed copy of the Hastings pattern, five full skeins and one mini skein of hand-dyed Dawn Orchid BFL Fingering. There is enough yarn to knit a range of sizes up to a 52 1/2" bust, with plenty of leftovers to lengthen the vest.
