This rustic vest is worked from the bottom up in a stockinette-and-garter texture stitch with a 3-needle bind-off at the shoulders. The front band is worked along with the body, and the arm bands are worked after picking up stitches around the armhole.
There are 2 versions of this pattern in seprate pdfs so you can choose with method you prefer. Version 1 has patterned wrong side rows - for those who hate purling - and knit right side rows. Version 2 has patterned right side rows and purl wrong side rows - easier to read your knitting, Sorry, you can’t have it both ways :)
