The vest is worked from the top down flat in rows with to strands of yarn held together. The back is worked first, and once that’s done, you’ll pick up stitches for the upper left front and the left neck edge is shaped with increases. Then, you’ll pick up stitches for the upper right front, shape the right neck edge and join the front pieces together to work the rest of the front from the top down. Once you have completed the front and back, stitches are picked up along the neckline to work the neck ribbing. Finally, waist ties are worked in double knitting.
