Carnation
Designed specifically for plus-size women, the Carnation, a bulky-weight cabled vest closed with a coat-weight zipper, is the perfect garment for cool days, cold nights, and lots of dog walks.
Pick either a simple-to-knit braid cable or a more complicated, beautiful Celtic cable.
The Carnation is available in two shapes: straight sides or a modified A-line.
There aren’t enough thank-yous in the world to give to Cabin Fever’s Deb Gemmel for her invaluable guidance and technical editing. But here’s one: thank you, Deb!
