Knitting Pattern: Slipover Amy

The wonderful slipover convinces with a special construction: knitted in one piece top down with raglan increases. The simple design captivates with easy, but beautiful cables. If you already like knitting cables, this pattern is for you; but even beginners can attempt it, as the cable repeat is short and simple.

The slipover is designed with zero ease around the top, the body is knit straight without any shaping with approximately 5cm of positive ease. For a more tailored fit, you can find option B for decreases for the waist in section 3.

The length of the slipover can be varied as desired – from cropped to tunic, everything is possible.
