Margot just finished Découverte (pictured below), a stylish and simple vest designed by Julie Hoover. Our Découverte sample is knit up in Anzula Squishy. It's incredibly soft and these semi-solid hand-dyes give depth to this luscious fabric. Découverte is a simple knit, made in pieces and seamed together. A few simple techniques are easy to master and give this garment a finished look. You'll need 3 -5 skeins of Squishy to complete this project. Each skein of Squishy is $36 and 385 delicious yards.
