Lulu Slipover- Chunky Edition - PetiteKnit

You can advantageously knit with the yarn Varde from Hillesvåg

Lulu Slipover - Chunky Edition is knitted from top to bottom. The slipover has a deep armhole and is fastened at the sides with two buttons. First, the back is knitted and then the front piece. Along the armhole opening, ribbed edges are knitted, and along the sides, which at the bottom form a slit, double-knitted edges are knitted. In the front of these double-knitted edges, two buttonholes are knitted. The neck's polo collar is lastly knitted from picked-up stitches.

Size guide

Lulu Slipover - Chunky Edition should have a positive ease of about 25-30 cm in the smallest sizes but gradually less in the larger sizes. The sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) correspond to a bust measurement of 75-80 (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95-100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm. The measurements of the finished slipover are given on the front of the pattern. Measure yourself before you start knitting to determine which size will fit you best. For example, if you measure 90 cm around the bust (or the widest part of your body), you should knit a size S. A slipover in size S has a chest width of 116 cm and will in the mentioned example give a positive ease of 26 cm.
