Cropped vest or slipover with a cute, simple, lace textured central panel in the front. It is a drop shoulder style vest, worked from the top down in stockinette stitch and easy, yet beautiful lace pattern that gives it a distinctive touch.

Javor vest is worked from the top down in stockinette stitch and lace pattern on the front.First the back is worked back and forth. Then, pick up and knit stitches along both shoulder seams and work the two shoulder sections separately. Join the shoulder sections by casting on new stitches at the center front and finish working the front section. Now join the front and back sections and work the remainder of the body in the round.Once the body is finished, stitches will be picked up for the neckline and armholes to work the ribbed edges in the round.The neck edge is worked in rib and folded over.
