Named Armas, Irish for crest as well as achievement, is this seamless high-low dress with a Celtic cable on the top of the back and the kangaroo pocket, like a family crest. Three small cables run along the sleeves ending on the saddle shoulder. The remaining dress is worked in stockinette stitch to make the cables stand out and ends in a crew neck that is crowned with an I-cord. Armas is knitted in the airy Norwegian combed wool yarn Ask from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk.
