Product Details
Chiye – Japanese for blessed – is this A-line vest with central braids that move towards the shoulder on the fronts and follow your spine on the back. A double seed stitch panel adds depths to the cables, before the sides fade into stockinette stitch. The vest is framed by double stockinette stitch bands at the bottom and along the opening. A deep V-neck makes the vest a great layering piece, that you can close with a shawl pin. Chiye is knitted in the soft Norwegian lambswool yarn Sol from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk.
