Novice Slipover Junior Knitting Pattern - PetiteKnit
Novice Slipover Junior
The Novice Slipover Junior is a simple and stylish sleeveless vest worked seamlessly from the top down in stockinette stitch. Starting with the back yoke, the pattern builds structure with shoulder shaping and joins at the underarm to be worked in the round for the body. Armhole and neckline ribbing add polish to this beginner-friendly project. With a relaxed fit and approximately 10 cm of positive ease, this is a classic layering piece for children aged 1 to 14 years.
