This vest is composed of the hem, body, front and back chest pieces, collar edge, and cuff edges. First, complete the knitting of each part, then sew together the shoulders, and pick up stitches for the collar edge and cuffs. The vest comes in two sizes: small and large. The knitting method is almost identical; only the number of stitches and rounds vary.

Note: Due to variations in individual tension, the size of the sample is for reference only.
