RAVEN Vest Pattern Kit in NOMAD by LANGYARNS
The RAVEN vest is a sophisticated open-front design featuring a combination of half brioche stitch-work and garter stitch. The interplay of textures creates depth, softness, and gentle structure, resulting in a versatile layering piece with timeless appeal.
Knitted in NOMAD by LANGYARNS , a sport weight yarn composed of 85% virgin extrafine merino wool (mulesing free) and 15% yak, the finished fabric combines warmth, softness, and excellent stitch definition. The natural yak fibre contributes a distinctive grey-brown undertone beneath the colour, adding depth and character to the textured stitch-work.
