Modern Layering Vest | Double Yarn Knit | PetiteKnit Design
Effortlessly timeless with a soft, contemporary feel, the Stockholm Slipover Round Neck is a beautifully wearable layering piece designed for everyday style. Featuring a clean, rounded neckline and gently structured silhouette, this version offers a more classic, understated finish than the V-neck.

Perfect over shirts, dresses, or tees, this is a versatile garment you’ll reach for year-round.

Construction Overview
The slipover is worked top-down, beginning with the back yoke. The shoulders are shaped using short rows for a refined fit, before the front is worked and joined in the round. Ribbed edges at the neckline and armholes create a clean, polished finish.
The Finished Piece
The round neck version offers a softer, more classic neckline that makes it incredibly versatile. Easy to dress up or down, it layers beautifully over shirts, dresses, or simple tees.
A thoughtfully designed knit that combines simplicity, elegance, and everyday wearability — perfect for knitters who value both process and finished piece.
