Avis Vest and Hat Knitting Pattern - 8Ply (BC125)
Avis Bobble Vest & Hat Knitting Pattern
Introduction
Inspired by the natural beauty of Lake Wanaka, the Avis set captures the textures and tones of the landscape from above. Featuring a geometric bobble design reminiscent of pebbled shores and autumn hues, this vest and hat set is both striking and timeless.
“Avis,” meaning bird in Latin, reflects the perspective behind this design—looking down over clear waters, textured stones, and distant mountains.
