DESIGN

Filipa Carneiro

This vest is worked top-down. Begin by knitting the front, shaping the neckline, and working increases up to the armholes. Next, pick up sts at the shoulders and knit the back. At the armholes, join the two pieces and work the body in the round down to the hem. Finally, pick up sts around the armholes and neckline and work a 2×1 corrugated rib.
