Cornish Thrift Vest
“This is a simple shell top for warm, breezy summer weather, with a coordinating shawl to cover up when the sun goes down,” says Nicola Diggins. “The stitch detail has the spiky effect of thrift, the wildflower which clings to the Cornish cliffs and rocks. The top is knitted in pieces from the bottom up, and seamed at the sides and shoulders to give stability to the delicate fabric.”
