Knitting pattern for Dahlia slipover vest by Katrine Hannibal for Önling
I have long wanted a slipover vest with a tight fit and narrow shoulders. A vest that can fit over a dress shirt or a t-shirt - or over a dress. I love the simple and beautiful 'Dahlia pattern' - so it was obvious that the vest should be part of our popular Dahlia series.
We work the Dahlia vest in our lovely Shetland wool; Önling No 20 by Hanne Falkenberg and our silk mohair Önling No 10. When the two yarns are worked together on needle no. 5, you get the most delicious knitwear, which is both wonderfully warm and feminine - and with a rustic twist from the Shetland wool.
Both yarns are available in so many beautiful colours, giving you a vast range of interesting color combinations.
The pattern is a PDF file. Immediately after purchase you will be able to download the pattern directly from the purchase confirmation page. You will also receive an e-mail with a link to your pattern, and the pattern will be available here at the site via your personal account - so remember to create an account :-) Read more about digital knitting patterns here.

WASHING INSTRUCTIONS
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.

Washing instructions for your knitwearWool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect. Often it is enough to hang your woolen sweater / garment outside in the humid weather or bring it with you into the bathroom, when you take a long, hot shower - the steam will often be enough to freshen it up it and remove any unwanted odors.
Specifically for knitwear knitted in Önling's Everyday Kit
Neither Önling No 12 nor No 13, is pre-washed when you receive it on cones. You get the best result if you soak your finished knitted garment in lukewarm water for approx. 2 hours. Then wash the garment as you would otherwise with washing detergent for wool, either by hand or on a wool program in your washing machine. Dry it by laying it flat.
Specifically for knitwear knitted in Önling's Silk kit
As the Silk Kit from Önling contains 3 different qualities (linen, wool and silk), we recommend that you always wash your silk sweater / garment by hand, to avoid it changing shape or appearance during wash. The three qualities will react differently to water, temperatures, etc. Önling can not take responsibility for the result if you wash your silk sweater in the washing machine. Your garment made from the silk kit should NOT be spun or tumble dried. Instead, dry it by laying it flat.
