Knit in Osprey, its plush, round stitches lend sculptural depth to every cable, like salt-softened rope catching light along the deck. Saltwind is a vest for layering, for living in, and for carrying tradition wherever you…

The inception of designer Pam Allen's The Wren Collection, started with the Clemons pants. Holding two strands of DK weight Wren together, the pants have structure and yet are irresistibly soft and bouncy. The pants are worked in one piece in the round from the waist to the base of the crotch, then the stitches are divided for working the legs separately in the round to the lower edges. The pant legs are shown in a slightly cropped, above-the-ankle length, but leg length is adjustable. We personally love the cropped length as it showcases the unique raw-edged hem.
