Rost is a relaxed fit, long-sleeved bolero that can be worn over a long- or short-sleeved top, as a light outer layer, or directly against the skin. It is a versatile garment that works equally well in both everyday and more dressed-up settings. The bolero is worked in separate pieces: the back, shoulders and front are worked first, after which stitches are picked up for the sleeves and collar.
