On the left front panel .. the direction was a bit confusing . But it’s exactly the same like we did on the right front panel . So .. I placed the 7 sts for buttonband to my needle .. knit as direction says . Then picked up and knitted 15 sts . Turn work .

I don’t know why she’s mentioned about counting 15 sts from left side to middle .. the point is to just picking up 15 sts ..

On joining the all the three panels ..
i didn’t actually need a spare needles , i left all those right and back panels on the waste yarn , while i began with the left panel , where the working yarn left . Knit that left panel , then i placed all the stitches that was on waste yarn , starting with the right panel and then back stitches into the needle . No need to spare needle , and joined .

Set up round for the tubular bind off after finishing ribbing with WS
row 1 : knit the knit stitches and slip the purl stitches . turn
row 2 : same

in this case since her first stitch is always slip , i slip that first stitch and slip the purl , it still comes out just fine .

Wasnt too happy with how the bind off on the ribbing turned out . i did make mistake and i just had to frog it . Just a note this wonderfluff yarn is a pain to frog , it caught on every single stitches and instead of frogging i felt like i was tinking stitches by stitches , row by row !

Anyway .. set up round for flat tubular bind off :
knit the knit stitches and slip the purl wyif
repeat that 3 more times .
