Colorful and Simple Toddler V-neck Vest: Finally done!

Suwan is wearing her new vest!

I'd been working on this vest for many months and finally I had just got it done! Actually, I didn't really have much time to knit since these girls started to move around. The vest like this usually takes me about a day or two to finish. Now I can start a new project, Hoo Ray!
I just made up my own pattern in my head. If any one want to knit a vest like this you could try a simpler version like this pattern.

A toddler easy V-neck Vest (fit ages 2-3 years old)

Materials.

Repeat the last 2 rows until armband measure 41/2 inches or 10 1/2 inches from the beginning.
Bind off the remaining stitches.

Continue working on these 10 stitches without decreasing. Keep working on armband and neck edge in the same manner as pattern. (RS, k the knitted sts. and p the purled sts., WS, k 2 at neck edge, p the purled sts. and k the knitted sts.) Work until piece measure the same as back. Bind off.
Work right side of V-shape neck on the remaining stitches from the holder. Decrease the neck edge in the same manner of the left side by work back ward from the chart.
Sew shoulders of front and back together. Sew side seems. Trim access yarn. Press on low setting if preferred.
