Our Oritatami Vest kit is here, and the colors are all up to EWE! Designed by Onanoko, this sculptural, cocoon-shaped vest is worked flat in one piece, with soft rolled edges and a relaxed drape that looks as good over a tee as it does over a turtleneck. Each kit pairs one strand of ITO Sensai (mohair and silk) held together with one strand of ITO Kinu (pure silk), giving you a light, airy, warm fabric with a gorgeous glow.
The best part? You choose your color combo, and we’ll order the yarn just for you. Need some inspiration? Here are a few favorites our customers have picked for Sensai and Kinu:
- Sensai in Billiard + Kinu in Pacific
- Sensai in Enji + Kinu in Hydrangea
- Sensai and Kinu both in Hydrangea for a hot pop of color
- Sensai in Salvia + Kinu in Blue
