This long, versatile sweater vest is designed to be worn open, and it features a whimsical single pocket—just enough to spark curiosity. Knit by marling two signature yarns from [La Bien Aimée][6]—[Corrie Worsted][7] and [Alix][8]—Glow creates a unique, softly heathered fabric with incredible depth and drape. The result is both cozy and luminous, living up to its name. Clean, sharp finishes like a double knit collar and armholes give structure and polish to this otherwise relaxed piece. Glow is that perfect blend of comfort and intention—ideal for layering, styling, and making your own. **HOW TO WEAR GLOW** Glow was designed with layering in mind— a relaxed, easy piece to slip over your outfit when the air turns crisp. Whether you’re wrapping it over a colorful dress or pairing it with your favorite band tee, it adds just the right amount of warmth and intention to any look. Think of it as the finishing touch that frames what you’re already wearing, bringing texture, color, and a bit of joyful whimsy. This vest is meant to be worn open. If you’d like to button your Glow and wear it closed, I recommend selecting a size with 15 to 20 cm of positive ease for comfort and movement. **SIZES 1 (2, 3, 4, 5) (6, 7, 8, 9) (10, 11, 12, 13)** Bust Circumference: 33.5 (36.5, 38, 41, 45) (46.5, 48.5, 51, 53) (56, 58.5, 60.5, 63.5)’’ / 85 (93, 97, 104, 114) (118, 123, 130, 135) (142, 149, 154, 161) cm **YARN REQUIREMENTS** 410 (470, 505, 560, 625) (670, 715, 800, 860) (905, 990, 1030, 1125) meters / 448 (514, 552, 612, 684) (733, 782, 875, 941) (990, 1083, 1127, 1231) yards of each yarn. **SUGGESTED YARN** [Corrie Worsted][9] or [Wensley Worsted][10]: 2 (3, 3, 3, 3) (3, 4, 4, 4) (4, 5, 5, 5) skeins **held double with** [Alix][11]: 1 (1, 1, 1, 1) (2, 2, 2, 2) (2, 2, 2, 2) skeins **SAMPLES** All 3 samples shown in size 7 (123cm / 48") **3 colors:** [La Bien Aimée Wensley Worsted in Pretty in Pink][12] (4 skeins) held double with [La Bien Aimée Alix][13] in [Buzz][14], [Vibin'][15] and [Seaglass][16] (1 skein of each color) **Yellow:** [La Bien Aimée Wensley Worsted in Yellow Brick Road][17] (4 skeins) held double with [Helix in Yellow Brick Road][18] (2 skeins) **Pink:** [La Bien Aimée Corrie Worsted in French Grey][19] (4 skeins) held double with [Alix in Fluoro Morganite][20] (1 skein) and [Alix in Buzz][21] for the pocket (1 mini skein) Aimee's bust size is 123cm / 48".
