A cool V-neck vest that can be enjoyed by both men and women, with a large pattern in green on navy blue. The large pattern stands out by using a single color for the ribs.
Knit in the round while inserting the steeks that will be cut out later for the armholes and neckline. First rib one stitch at the hem, then knit in the round while inserting steeks at the armholes and neckline. Cut open the steeks at the armholes, pick up the rest stitches and the steek parts, and rib knit. Cut open the steeks at the neckline, pick up the rest stitches and the steek parts, and rib knit. After each steek has been processed, the finishing touches are done.
