NOTES
vest | 23 blends simplicity with complexity. Basic Stockinette and Rib stitches are elevated with grafting techniques, short rows, and tubular knit edges. Knit from the bottom up, live stitches at the shoulders of the front and back pieces are joined using the Kitchener grafting method. Armholes are finished with sewn hems rather than ribbing for a flat draped edge. Ribbed button/buttonhole bands become the side panels.
