Procedure: Nexi Vest is worked in garter stitch starting from the bottom of the front piece and worked up over the shoulders and down the back, in one piece. First an I-cord is worked as a base for the front piece stitches. Then working in garter stitch you will continue on making decreases to shape the armholes and - if preferred - short rows to shape the bust area. The work is then divided into a left and right side to shape the neckline, then re-connected and garter stitch with decreases to shape the backside of the arm holes are worked. Finally an i-cord is created at the bottom of the top. Tie straps are crocheted and attached to the sides of the top.
