CARMELA Loose-fitting Vest Pattern Kit in MOHAIR 21 by LANGYARNS
The CARMELA vest is a knitted garment worked in MOHAIR 21 by LANGYARNS, a lace-weight yarn composed of 58% Mohair (Superkid – 21 micron) and 42% Silk. Four strands are held together to create a light yet voluminous fabric with an airy halo, elegant sheen, and gentle warmth.
The design features a loose-fitting silhouette and is worked in twisted rib, giving structure and texture while allowing the softness of the yarn to take centre stage. The combination of generous proportions and refined stitchwork results in a contemporary vest with relaxed ease.
This kit includes the LANGYARNS MOHAIR 21 required for your selected size and the original LANGYARNS FATTO A MANO 278 pattern publication featuring CARMELA.
