This is a variegated vest pattern that I’m working on and need help with reading the pattern for the [B]Front[/B]. I’ve finished the [B]Back[/B], but it seems like there is something missing between the [B]Front[/B] and the [B]Neck Shaping[/B] instructions. Is there? What happened to the armhole shaping? Please help.
