Valen is a boxy-fit hooded vest designed with outdoor adventures in mind. A cozy diamond texture helps the fabric hold in heat, and a generous hood can be pulled up when the wind starts to blow.

Valen is knit in an allover diamond texture pattern, and the back is designed to be wider than the front. A single column of purl stitches divides the fronts and back, and the buttonholes are worked in the left band.
