Reversing All Shaping

[pagebrenda]

I am knitting a vest and just finished the right front. For the left front it says, "work as same as right front, reversing all shaping and omitting buttomhole row".

V Neck Shaping: k1, ssk, knit to end.

Armhole Shaping (WS): Bind off 3 sts, purl to the end.

Decrease Row (WS): pl, p2tog, purl to end.

How do you reverse the shaping listed above?

You do it on the other edge and/or other row of the piece. For the V neck, the dec would be at the end of the row (knit to last 3 sts, k2tog, k1); the armhole shaping will be be BO at the beg of the RS row and the decs will be on the RS row - k1 ssk, knit to end.
