This waterfall style vest is sure to become a staple in your wardrobe. The flow of the shaping flatters most everyone.

The back lace panel is knit first and then the waterfall sides are knit by picking up stitches along the side of the back. The last step is to pick up stitches around the front and back of neck to create a fold back collar.
