FAQs

Is this vest suitable for year-round wear?

It is best suited for transitional weather in spring and autumn, or as an extra layer during milder winter days.

What is the material composition?

This garment is crafted from 100% organic cotton.

Does this vest run true to size?

Yes, it is designed with a regular fit, which generally corresponds to standard UK sizing.

Can I put this in the tumble dryer?

It is highly recommended to avoid the tumble dryer, as heat can shrink and damage the natural cotton fibers.

What does 'Fair Isle' mean?

Fair Isle is a traditional knitting technique used to create patterns with multiple colors, originating from the Shetland Islands.

Troubleshooting

The vest feels slightly stretched after washing.

Avoid hanging the vest when wet. Lay it perfectly flat to dry and reshape it gently with your hands while damp.

Pilling occurs on the surface of the knit.

Use a fabric shaver or a sweater comb to gently remove surface fuzz, taking care to follow the direction of the knit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sustainable and soft organic cotton material
  • Excellent for versatile layering in transitional weather
  • Classic Fair Isle pattern adds unique, timeless character
  • Comfortable regular fit suitable for various body shapes
  • High-quality construction with durable ribbed trims

Cons

  • Requires careful washing due to the knit construction
  • Limited to a blue-toned color palette
  • Layering requires careful coordination with patterned shirts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your knit vest looking its best, follow these guidelines:

  • Styling: Use the vest as a layering piece. It is compatible with both casual T-shirts for a relaxed vibe or collared shirts for a more refined, academic look.
  • Washing: Hand wash or use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent specifically formulated for delicate knits to avoid pilling or stretching.
  • Drying: Always dry the vest flat on a towel away from direct heat sources. Never hang the vest while wet, as the weight of the water will stretch the cotton fibers and distort the fit.
  • Storage: Fold the vest instead of hanging it to maintain its shape over time.
