The innumerable tree trunks in the deep forest, running for miles all around was the inspiration behind the design. Walking through the woods with the scent of fall in the air, towering trees all around and the rustle of leaves underneath, the only thing one can see is how beautiful the simplicity is. Even the bare trees have the power to ignite passion. Designed with simple ribbing and knit stitches, the sleek vest is an ode to the primeval forest.
