EILIS Vest Pattern Kit in DONEGAL TWEED+ by LANGYARNS
EILIS is a knitted vest worked in DONEGAL TWEED+ by LANGYARNS , a yarn made from 100% virgin wool (mulesing free) and spun and dyed in the traditional Donegal region of Ireland.
DONEGAL TWEED+ is defined by its bold, colourful neps and robust tweed character. Retaining a small amount of natural spinning oil, the yarn undergoes a notable transformation once knitted and washed: the fabric blooms, gains volume, and softens beautifully, enhancing both warmth and comfort.
This kit includes the LANGYARNS DONEGAL TWEED+ required for your selected size and the original LANGYARNS PUNTO 87 pattern publication featuring EILIS.
