Holiday Slipover

This knitting pattern is in Swedish and is sold as an A4 printout.

The Holiday Slipover is knitted from the top down in stockinette stitch. First, the back piece is knitted, followed by the shoulder sections and the front piece, and finally the body. At the bottom of the body, a two-piece ribbed edge is knitted, with the back piece knitted longer than the front ribbing. Finally, ribbed edges are knitted along the neckline and armholes, finished with Italian decreases for a neat and tidy finish. Make a gauge swatch before you start.

The Holiday Slipover should have a positive ease of approx. 6 cm relative to your bust measurement. Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL correspond to a bust measurement of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) 140-150 cm. Measure yourself before you start knitting to determine which size suits you best. If you, for example, measure 90 cm around the bust (or the widest part of your body), you should knit size S, which has a width of 96 cm. This gives a positive ease of 6 cm in the example above.
