We're excited to release the highly anticipated PATTERN for the Flowers of Fortrose Vest designed by Corinne, TWT Owner! The Flowers of Fortrose design is named after Fortrose on the Black Isle in the Highlands of Scotland where Corinne's family spent lots of school holidays visiting Grandad; flowers are all around the village. The design started with the hat and mittens — adorable and very popular. Now, you can add the Flowers of Fortrose Vest to the ensemble!
The Flowers of Fortrose Vest features cheerful colorwork blooms and a timeless silhouette. This vest captures the warmth and charm of holidays spent among flowers and family. The pattern calls for Jamieson & Smith 2ply Jumper Weight (fingering) yarn, which is 100% Shetland Wool, to achieve beautiful results in the fabric of your finished garment.
Purchase the digital pattern here and the PDF will be sent to your email.* This pattern is also available in the kits and the Intermediate Colorwork Course, so if you purchase one of those, you do not need to purchase the individual pattern here.
We have put together kits for this design in several colorways to make your ordering easy! The Flowers of Fortrose Vest Kit includes all the yarn you'll need in your selected colorway, the digital pattern, a TWT tote bag, and stitch marker. Order your kit here!
