Sissel Edelbo Preston MINI Vest - No. 66 - 5-6 Y
Preston MINI Vest features a casual vest for children. The mini vest is made in a mix of teddy fabric and a kantha blanket. The vest is reversible and can be worn with either the teddy side or the kantha side on the outside. The vest has pockets at front on both sides. All edges are nicely covered with cotton bindings.This unique item has parts that are upcycled from a vintage Kantha blanket. A kantha blanket is made of old cotton fabrics such as saris that are placed on top of each other and stitched together by hand, using the traditional kantha embroidery technique. This technique is characterized by the many rows of short, continuous stitches – a method that has been used in India for hundreds of years and especially common among women in the countryside. The kantha embroidery technique creatively upcycles old cotton saris that previously have been worn by Indian women, giving them new life as upcycled clothing items, blankets, or bedspreads. Each Kantha item is one-of-a-kind in its print and color combination. Due to the nature of kantha, you may find different colors on the back of the garment, additional fabric patches, smaller imperfections such as small stains and spots or extra stitching that adds to its unique charm.1-2 YEARSFull length: 40.5 cmChest: 59 cm3-4 YEARSFull length: 43 cmChest: 70 cm5-6 YEARSFull length: 47.5 cmChest: 78 cm7-8 YEARSFull length: 48 cmChest: 80 cm
