Frequently asked questions
What forms the point of Friday Slipover V-Neck’s neckline?
The ribbed neck edge has decorative decreases at the centre front. This is a distinct finishing detail of the V-neck edition.
Does its finished length include the neck edge?
Yes. The listed centre-back measurement includes the neck edge, unlike some other PetiteKnit designs.
When should I measure the broken-rib swatch?
After washing and drying. Broken rib relaxes with washing and wear; an unwashed swatch may show about 24–25 stitches rather than the required 22.
