The vest is crocheted in rows from bottom to top. Begin with the big gradient yarn cake, which is crocheted up to the armholes.
At the height of the armholes, the crochet piece is divided into right and left front and back. Each section is crocheted separately. For this I have used the smaller cakes.
When the armholes are finished, the shoulders will be closed and the collar will be added.
