Procedure: The vest is worked in the round from the bottom up. First, a provisional crochet cast-on is made, and the vest is worked in the round to the armhole. Here the stitches are divided into front and back panels which are finished individually. At this point you can try on the vest and decide how long you want the rib hems before knitting them.
The price of the yarn kit is calculated based on the amount of yarn included, which is the amount we have used to knit the design according to the above measurements. Should you need more yarn, additional yarn can be purchased at regular prices bt placing an order and stating the LOT number in the comment box at checkout. All designs have been thoroughly calculated and tested.
