VESTival!

Embrace the essence of bohemian fashion with our trendy VESTival sleeveless top, designed as a relaxed overlay perfect for music festivals and warm-weather gatherings. This unique piece is expertly knitted sideways for the base section, creating a loose and airy fabric that drapes beautifully. The yoke is then cleverly picked up and knitted off the base, giving it a strikingly stylish appearance that stands out in any crowd.
