Crafted with timeless Aran stitches, the Donegal Vest is a versatile unisex piece intended to elevate your everyday
style, seamlessly pairing with anything from denim to tailoring.

The vest is worked from the bottom up and the
front and back are worked separately. Once complete, the front and back are seamed at the side and shoulders
before working the armhole and neck edging.

While intentionally oversized, the vest offers the flexibility to achieve a snug fit by opting for a size down.
