FAQs

Is the knit itchy?

No, the vest is crafted from 100% organic cotton, which is known for being soft and comfortable against the skin.

Can I put this in the dryer?

It is recommended to dry the garment flat. High heat from a tumble dryer can cause cotton knitwear to shrink or lose its shape.

What does 'Fair Isle' mean?

Fair Isle is a traditional knitting technique used to create patterns with multiple colors, creating the vibrant striped look seen on this vest.

Is this vest suitable for layering under a coat?

Yes, its regular fit and mid-weight construction make it thin enough to wear comfortably under most jackets or coats.

Does it run true to size?

The vest is designed with a standard regular fit; if you prefer a looser, more oversized look for layering, you may consider sizing up.

Troubleshooting

The knit looks slightly wrinkled after washing.

Gently shake the garment while damp and ensure it is laid completely flat to dry to allow the natural fibers to relax.

Minor pilling occurs on the surface after frequent use.

Use a fabric shaver or a sweater comb specifically designed for knitwear to carefully remove pills and restore the smooth finish.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Made from breathable, natural organic cotton
  • Versatile design suitable for various layering styles
  • Easy to maintain with machine-washable fabric
  • Traditional folk-inspired aesthetic that adds color to any outfit

Cons

  • Mid-weight knit may not provide enough warmth for harsh winter conditions
  • Requires careful storage to maintain the shape of the knit
  • Specific sizing is essential to ensure the regular fit rests correctly on the shoulders

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your knit vest in top condition, always follow the care label instructions provided on the garment. Being 100% cotton, it is machine washable; however, it is recommended to wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors. To prevent stretching or misshaping, avoid hanging the vest while wet; instead, dry it flat on a clean surface. When storing, fold the item rather than using a hanger, as the weight of the knit can cause the shoulders to stretch out over time. This piece is highly compatible with most basic wardrobe staples including cotton tees, chambray shirts, and midi-length dresses.
