Berkeley Vest
This vest is worked bottom up in the round until the front and back are separated to make the armholes. Once done, the front and the back are joined using 3-needle bind off. Next, the ribbing for the arms is added by picking up stitches using circular needles. Finally, the V-shape neckline ribbing is added by picking up stitches with circular needles.
