Alice Vest

Job type	Test knit
Description	Overview The Alice vest is completely seamless. To make the vest you'll knit the whole body back and forth bottom-up until you separate for the armholes, where you’ll knit the front panels and back panel. The shoulders are joined and then you'll add the neck and armhole i-cords. The vest has a regular fit, however it is open at the front, so you can tight it or leave it loose. Optionally you can add embroidery.
