Knit the Vegr Vest by Ella Gordon, a striking colorwork delight inspired by Ella's Shetland heritage and her family's history in the herring fishing industry. This Fair Isle colorwork design features repeating Shetland motifs resulting in a complex and truly rewarding finished garment.
This yarn set uses J&S 5ply Shetland, a sport-weight worsted spun yarn that is 100% Shetland wool. It knits into strong, long-wearing fabrics with excellent stitch definition, making the knitting experience satisfying and the finished garments durable enough for years of wear. Your set includes all the yarn needed to knit your chosen size and colorway, a TWT Tote, and a stitch marker. Just grab your pattern and needles and enjoy casting on this gorgeous vest.

- 8 - 16x 50g balls of J&S 5ply Shetland Yarn
