Byssanlull
The vest Byssanlull is neither too cold nor too warm, and it’s a perfect garment for layering. A light weight, classic vest with v-neck and button opening to minimize conflicts while putting it on.
It is a fast project for the impatient knitter, and quite straightforward as well – as long as you can read written instructions.
