This contemporary vest features an all-over wave pattern that grows out of the hem ribbing and up into the wide crew neck. An easy-to-wear yet stylish layering piece to keep you warm when going about your daily activities, Laguna Veneta Vest is not too difficult to knit for an advanced beginner and not too easy for more advanced knitters.

This sweater vest works up effortlessly in our lofty DK-weight Lore yarn, which is perfect for textures and making a light yet enveloping piece. Made from 100% lambswool from the English Romney sheep breed, this piece is guaranteed to keep you warm and cosy.

The Almanac Series III
The Laguna Veneta Vest is part of The Almanac III Series which is an ongoing collection celebrating each month of the year with a Yarn of the Month. It is based on the original farmer’s Almanac, a nature-inspired guide to the seasons. In our first two Almanacs, we looked to land with our theme of herbalism. Then to the skies, with our theme of astronomy. Now we look to the seas.

Our third Almanac Series is inspired by the oceans to acknowledge the importance of maintaining a balanced and thriving ocean ecosystem. The moodiness of the deep ocean, the chill of polar seas, the patterns and rhythm of the winter swells, and the great migrations of sea birds were some of the inspirations behind this Almanac Series.

We invite you to feel inspired by the high seas and explore this theme with us.
