👉Timeless Charm With Buttons & Ties...

September 19, 2025

Unisex Monroe Vest

It started on a Friday evening. The house was quiet. I had a cup of herbal tea and a sketchbook on the table. I kept thinking about a knit that works in every season. Light enough for a spring morning. Cozy enough for a fall playground. 

Something a boy or a girl could wear. Something you’d love now and save for the next child.

I pictured wooden buttons tiny hands could handle. Side ties that adjust as kids grow. Yarn that stays soft after every wash. Not fussy. Just beautiful and practical.

After a few false starts and late-night rows, it finally came together. The Monroe Cropped Vest! A gender-neutral heirloom piece hand knitted from cotton and bamboo yarn.

Durable. Breathable. Machine-washable. Made for real life and all the mess that comes with it :-)

You can bring the Monroe home two easy ways:

Explore Made-to-Order: Pick your color. Pick your size. Ask for a custom fit if you like (with no extra charge).

Take a Peek at Ready-to-Ship: Need it right away? These vests are finished and ready to go.

A quiet Friday idea turned into a piece you can hold, wear, and pass down.
I hope it finds a place in your family’s adventures.
