Irida Vest – DK Version

Irida returns in DK weight, warmer, faster to knit, and perfect for layering through the colder months.
The signature 3-color motif keeps its crisp geometry, while the DK fabric adds softness and gentle structure. A clean twisted-rib V-neck and subtle slanted shoulders finished with an applied i-cord create a modern, wearable silhouette.

Special Release Offer Enjoy 15% off the DK version for a limited time. Already own the Fingering version or want both? A special bundle discount is applied automatically at checkout.

Included Tutorials
The pattern includes short video tutorials for construction, applied i-cord, and color-change fixes.
