The Maybel vest by Hanna Maciejewska is knitted seamlessly from the top down, starting with the back section of a wide collar. Back stitches are picked up along lower edge of collar and worked down to the armhole. Stitches for the front are picked up along the shoulder edge and worked to the armhole. Both front and back pieces are joined and worked together in a round to the hem.
