Juicy Slipover Knitting Pattern (English)

Juicy Slipover is an oversized model with a European shoulder construction and slits in each side; the front overlapping the back. It can be made as a cropped model or with normal length. The slipover is worked in Stockinette stitch in one strand of Big Curly (yarn A), while the trims are worked in 3 strands of merino held together with 3 strands of mohair (yarn B) framing the sweater with a nice hold and contrast.

Starting on the neck, the back piece is worked back and forth while at the same time working increases in each side shaping the slanting shoulder seam. When the back piece reaches the correct width, continue straight down and finish shaping the armholes by increasing at the bottom. Next stitches are knit up along each shoulder seam, and the front pieces are worked back and forth while at the same time working increases towards the neckline. In the bottom of the neckline new stitches are cast on, and the front piece is joined. Continue straight down until shaping the bottom of the armholes by increasing. 

Both front and back pieces are finished with a double knit trim along the edges of the slits and at the bottom of the body. The top of each slit is joined in the bottom of the armhole with the front piece on top of the back. Knit up stitches along the armhole and finish with a double knit trim. Which is seamlessly joined by Kitchener stitches.


Choice of size

The slipover has a positive ease of 15-20 cm on the smaller sizes and 5-15 on the larger sizes. This means you should choose a size measuring 20-25 / 5-15 cm more than your chest circumference. If your chest measures 96 cm, you should choose a size M with a circumference of 114 cm.
