Dawa is a seamless slipover with ribbing and lace patterns on the front and back. Knitted top-down and beginning with a cable panel across the shoulders on the back, the front and back are worked flat off the edges of this cable panel, then joined with sideway-knitted panels with armhole shaping. The lace weight yarn is held double for the most part of the slipover, which gives good stitch definition to the cables and ribbing. Highlighting the lightness of lace yarn, side panels are knitted in a single strand to create a slightly sheer fabric for contrast and to make the slipover a light layering piece.

Knitted in soft and light Baby Yak, this slipover is comfortable even in summer over a sleeveless top. Armholes are deep enough for layering over short or long sleeves and sweaters. You can have fun combining 2 lace weight yarns of different colours or fibre, as well as working with different colour combinations.

Dawa is a Tibetan word that means moon or month. In Tibet, it is often used as a name for children born on a Monday.

Dawaはリブとレースの模様が前後の身頃に入ったとじはぎなく編むベスト. 後ろ肩のケーブル模様のパネルからスタートし, 前と後ろ身頃はケーブルパネルの縁から目を拾ってトップダウンに往復編みし, 両脇のパネルを袖ぐりを作りながら横方向に編んでつなげます. ベストの大部分は極細糸を2本取りにして編むことで, ケーブルとリブ模様が浮かび上がります. 脇のパネルは極細糸の軽やかさを際立たせるよう, 1本取りで編んで透け感のある編地にし, 身頃とコントラストを出すことで, 軽く重ね着しやすいアイテムにしました.

軽くやわらかな糸Baby Yakで編むので, 夏にノースリーブのトップスの上から着ても着心地良く, 袖ぐりが深いので, 半袖または長袖のシャツブラウスやセーターの上にも重ねて着ることが出来ます. 色や素材の異なる2本の極細糸を引き揃えたり, 色を組み合わせるのも楽しいでしょう.

Dawaはチベット語で天体や暦の月を意味します. 月曜日生まれの子どもにつけられることが多い名前でもあります.
