Yarn package for the Holiday Slipover by PetiteKnit.

The Holiday Slipover is a chunky-knit slipover with deep armholes, knitted in stockinette stitch from the top down.

First, the back is worked, followed by the shoulders and front, and finally the body. At the bottom of the body, a two-part ribbed edging is knitted, with the back edge longer than the front edge.

Finally, finishing ribbing is knitted along the neckline and around the armholes and bound off using the Italian method, as this gives the neatest result.

Size guide

The Holiday Slipover should have approximately 6 cm of positive ease in relation to your bust circumference.
Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL fit a bust circumference 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 make sure you have chosen the correct size for you. If your bust circumference measures, for example, 90 cm (or at the widest point of your torso), you should choose size S, as the bust circumference for this size is 96 cm.

If you would like a slightly oversized slipover, you can knit one size larger than usual.
