Stockholm Slipover - PetiteKnit

This knitting pattern is in Swedish.

Here we choose Isager Tweed together with 1 thread Silk Mohair from Isager.

The Stockholm Slipover is knitted from top to bottom. First the back piece, then the shoulder parts and front piece, and finally the body. The Stockholm Slipover has a slope over the shoulders created with short rows to achieve a good fit. Along the neckline and armhole, a rib edge is knitted, which is bound off with a tight Italian bind-off.

Make a gauge swatch before you start – it is very important for the shoulder width that the gauge is correct.

Size guide

The Stockholm Slipover should have a positive ease of about 6 cm in relation to your chest measurement. Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL correspond to a chest 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 assess which size is best for you. For example, if you measure 90 cm around the chest (or the widest part of your body), you should knit a size S, which has a chest width of 96 cm.

The Stockholm Slipover is knitted with decreases at the sides of the body. If the chest is not the widest part of your body, you can skip these decreases on the body.
