Damselfly Sleeveless Vest
Don’t be a damsel in distress…always have the perfect top to go with your outfit, no matter what it is. Worked in the round from the bottom up, this top is a versatile transition piece - go sleeveless or use it as a vest as it gets cooler. It goes casual or dressy. This beautifully soft, hand-dyed DK yarn has a slight sheen and halo which creates a lovely finish to this statement piece, adorned with picots and simple, but effective, wrapped stitch edgings.

This top is designed to be worn with 0-2” positive ease.
Shown in size 32” with no ease.
