Friday Slipover V-Neck Knitting Pattern - PetiteKnit
📬 Printed Booklet (Posted to You)
Friday Slipover V-neck
The Friday Slipover V-neck is worked from the top down in broken rib.
First the back yoke is worked, then the shoulders, followed by the front yoke and finally the body. Rib edges are worked along the V-neck and armholes. The neck edge features decorative decreases at the centre front.
Please knit and wash a swatch before beginning. Broken rib stretches with washing and wear. Before washing, the gauge will measure approx. 24–25 stitches per 10 cm and will relax to the correct gauge after blocking.
The slipover is designed with approx. 6 cm of positive ease.
Choose a size based on your bust measurement.
