 S. B. (NO COLLAR) VEST.

Draft as Diagram 38 up the front, fill in gorge and cut as at 1. This to provide for the stand of the collar.

Make notch point upwards and so provide for spring.

Shape opening to taste, and complete as shown.

On this diagram we illustrate how to leave on extra button

stand on button side, which may be done with any style. This prevents the underclothing showing through the end of the holes.

There is plenty of scope for variety in the shape of the opening above top button.

The leading varieties are Y shaped, U shaped, and jockey or notched to imitate a stand collar.

The special feature in all of these is to cut the stand of the collar in one with the forepart and at the same time provide sufficient spring at the side of neck, which is best done by the notch here shown.

One great advantage of this style is thinness round the neck.
