Smithfield Vest Kits

Introducing the Smithfield Vest - a cozy yet sophisticated knit inspired by the architectural beauty of the Smithfield Street Bridge in my hometown of Pittsburgh. This city never fails to spark creativity, and the elongated cables in this design pay homage to the bridge's iconic structure. The Smithfield Vest is the perfect layering piece for your fall-to-winter wardrobe. It pairs effortlessly with a crisp button-down and also looks stunning under a blazer. Versatile for both casual and professional settings. Knit in The Lamb & Kid Tod, the vest offers a cuddly, soft fabric that's as delightful to wear as it is to knit. Tod is one of my go-to yarns, loved for its incredible softness and durability - qualities that make this vest a timeless addition to any wardrobe!

You'll need the pattern from Caitlyn, either on Payhip, or on Ravelry.

Fiber Content

Tod is a light and lofty DK weight yarn. Its perfect blend of yak and cashmere allows it to keep its shape while staying so soft and cuddly. It's exactly what you want in any knitting project.  

Tod was the result of a fastidious process. We worked closely with our mills to create a gorgeously cozy base. With a fiber content of 65% Yak and 35% Cashmere, Tod was designed to shine on its own— but pure magic happens when you mix those bases. Tod is the stuff of dreams. Once you get it on your needles, we think you’ll agree.
