PATTERN NOTES: This unisex size-inclusive vest includes two versions and is worked seamlessly in the round from bottom up. Version 1 is standard full-length body and Version 2 is a cropped version. And there are two options for the shoulder widths: Narrower Shoulder and Wider Shoulder. Stitches are picked up for the neck and sleeve edges and worked in ribbing in the round.
