Polina Vest



The Polina Vest Class is a perfect way to keep you on task to finish your Polina Vest for the knit along. You'll receive support in stranded colorwork, garment knitting and other special techniques. 

Get right to the colorwork during your first class by casting and completing the ribbing before the first class. Our staff is happy to help you select your size and choose your materials prior to the first class. 

The Polina Vest is worked in the round from the bottom up, then flat beginning at the armholes.
