Intricate beautifully knitted gilet, Lalland Aran or Double Stranded Lalland DK lambswool. Cables and Lace with integrated cabled border.
This beautifully sculptural gilet,brings a unique richness to formal wear with its perfectly refined detailing. Inspired by the deeply carved paths and rivulets that travel through the rolling hills. An echo of the strength of water as it slowly sculpts its way through the landscape, finding its way towards the lowlands. Arabesque is a form of decoration based on rhythmic linear patterns of scrolling and interlacing tendrils; translated through thick abstract cabling and intricate detailing. When worn the garment reveals the lace work.

Important Information when purchasing our yarns.
When purchasing hand dyed yarns, we recommend you purchase a sufficient amount of yarn for your project.
We sell handmade products that get produced in small batches. We always use the same recipes for repeatable colorways and work very precise measuring our materials. However, it's impossible to guarantee two skeins will ever look the same. With hand made products there is always some variation on the end product.
If you want a uniform result with the end product you are making, with knitting, crochet and weaving, alternate skeins once rows. If using fiber, you can mix and match some of the fibers as you go when spinning or felting.
When dyeing yarn we fully exhaust all pigments before going to the rinsing step. Despite the care we put into the rinsing process, mild bleeding is common in hand dyed yarn and if you have a skein with a bright or dark color, or it contains speckles, play it safe by rinsing the skein in cold water and some wool wash and let it dry before casting on.
This listing is for one (1) skein of yarn unless specifically mentioned otherwise. Photos of multiple skeins shows a comparison between yarn bases and/or skeins. Colorways may slightly vary depending on the screen due to your display settings.
