“8 sizes and 4 lengths!”

This style is so versatile, you can make all different lengths. Cropped, hip, tunic, and dress lengths. Or any length you’d like! It’s quite simple to customize your Slipover—for your personal style or body type, as a long layer with side vents, or as a short topper over a tee, to be dressed up or down.

Designed in a variety of summery fibers from the effortlessly cool Shibui Twig to the deliciously lustrous Blue Sky Fibers Alpaca Silk, from the glowing and drapey Erika Knight Studio Linen to the incomparable pairing of Shibui’s Cima and Reed—there are so many beautiful textures and fabrics and colors to play with. You might want to knit a few and mix it up!

This 8 page pattern includes:

  • Color photographs by the talented Jared Flood
  • A Special Technique—‘flat slipped-stitch’ edging (to keep those side vents from rolling)
  • Step-by-step guide for adjusting body & armhole lengths, with a fill-in-the-blank section to help with the math
  • A tutorial on picking up stitches for neck & armhole edgings (along horizontal, vertical and sloped edges) accompanied by color photos
  • Instructions for swatching for gauge and fabric, and finishing and blocking your garment

This slipover has been knitted at a DK-weight gauge of 22 sts = 4"/10cm and 32 rows = 4"/10cm. Cast on 33 stitches to knit a swatch that measures about 6"/15cm wide; work in St St for 6"/15cm; bind off loosely.

If you have more than 22 stitches in 4"/10cm, your gauge is a little tight; try swatching again on larger needle. If you have fewer than 22 sts, your gauge is a little loose; try again on smaller needle.
