NOTES
The pattern has options to make either a vest or sweater.
The body is worked in the round to the underarms. The upper back and front are worked flat separately to the shoulders, with the neck and shoulder shaping. The sleeve stitches (for a sweater version) are picked up around the armholes and are worked in the round from the top down. The neckline edge and vest’s armhole edges are decorated with a slipped selvage stitch.
Choose a size with 4–6”/10-15 cm of positive ease.
