This vest, with an allover twisted-stitch motif, is knitted from the bottom up, working in the round to the underarms, and back and forth through the upper body. When the body is complete, the shoulders are joined with a three needle bind off, and twisted rib edgings are worked around the neck and both armscyes. Note that the chart is worked in the round to the underarms (all rows read from right to left), and then back and forth in rows for the upper body.
