Ariel is a delicate, openwork vest with a classic V-neckline, designed to be both lightweight and elegant. Knitted in the round from the bottom up using kid mohair held double, this vest features a soft, flowing lace pattern that creates a beautiful play of light and texture.

The design includes a neat 1x1 ribbed hem, clean armhole finishes, and a professionally shaped V-neck with a decorative ribbed band. The pattern offers three size groups (XS-S, M-L, XL-2XL) and includes detailed instructions for adjusting length, neck depth, and fit.

✨ Key features:

· Seamless construction: Worked in the round to the armholes, then divided for front and back.
· Full lace guidance: Complete chart and written instructions for the openwork pattern.
· Professional shaping: Step-by-step instructions for the V-neck with balanced decreases.
· Lace techniques section: Special guidance on handling decreases, increases, and transitions to stockinette stitch in lace patterns.
· Detailed assembly: Shoulder joining and armhole finishing instructions.
· Care instructions: Wet-blocking and care guidance specifically for kid mohair.

‍ Perfect for: Intermediate knitters who love delicate lace and want a versatile, elegant layering piece for spring, summer evenings, or special occasions.

Designer tip: The recommended yarn is kid mohair (1500 m/100 g) held double, creating a lightweight yet warm fabric with a soft halo. For best results, always swatch and block your swatch to check gauge and fabric drape.
