When pieces are all joined, fold over at shoulders, and join side fronts to underarm strips. Work a row of s c around armholes, working 3 s c in each ch-4 chain, and 10 s c across underarm. Work 2 more rows, working 1 s c in each s c. Work s c around outside of vest as follows: Starting at lower right front, work 4 s c in each ch-4 chain (skipping the ch 1 which forms the cluster), 6 s c in each ch-6 chain, 4 s c in each ch-4 chain down left side, 3 s c in corner cluster st, 6 s c in each ch-6 space across bottom, and 3 s c in lower cluster st on right front. Work 2 more rows of s c, st for st, working 3 sts in each lower corner. If desired: Make a chain 40 inches long for closing.
