Tay
Designed to be worn over a lightweight top (or on its own - if
you dare?) and paired with the Spey Skirt. The Tay Waistcoat
is one-size-fits-most, the belt being the only part with multiple
sizing. Worked with 3 different colours at a time makes for a
very attractive ombre effect and a lovely, warm fabric.
Includes optional, detachable collar.
