Create a beautifully textured layer with our Willow Chunky Cable Vest Knitting Kit. Featuring statement cables, a flattering V-neck and a relaxed sleeveless shape, this contemporary sweater vest looks lovely worn over shirts, dresses and lightweight jumpers.
Knitted in our beautifully soft and warm Chunky merino wool, Willow has a wonderfully substantial texture while remaining comfortable and versatile. The chunky yarn and larger needles help the project grow satisfyingly quickly, making it a rewarding addition to your handmade wardrobe.
This Intermediate-level knitting kit is designed for confident knitters who are comfortable with the basics and are ready to develop their cable-knitting and garment-shaping skills. It is an achievable first cable garment and a lovely project for exploring texture.
The pattern includes seven sizes from XS to 3X. Choose your favourite yarn colour to create a Willow Vest that feels completely your own and enjoy styling it throughout the cooler seasons.
