Khối Vest
designed by Serena Qiu (@ozukoknits)

The Khối Vest is a seamless, top-down v-neck vest with asymmetrical color blocking, and unisex sizing! Designed for an oversized fit with 6-8” / 15.2-20.3cm positive ease, and dropped shoulders. There are 2 versions a full-length boxy oversized fit and a cropped version with cut in shoulders. This is a perfect garment for learning (or practicing!) intarsia in the round.

You only need one skein of the contrast color for all sizes, whether your blocks are the same or different. We want you to play with color!
