    CONSTRUCTION

    • There are 4 steps involved in creating the lower section of the vest. You will work both a Right and a Left lower section (Steps 1 and 2 of Right and Left fronts below), and then join the two pieces at the center Back (Step 3). Then, you will pick up stitches for the upper bodice (Step 4) along the side edge of the joined lower rectangles, and complete the upper section.
    • The garment is worked in one piece to the armhole, then the fronts and Back are worked separately to the shoulders.
