This is a printed pattern in Swedish.

September Slipover is knitted from the top down in English rib. First the back is knitted by casting on stitches for the neck and working back and forth on the needle with increases on each side. After this, stitches are picked up for the shoulder sections, which are first knitted separately, and then joined at the front to knit the front piece. Below the armhole, the back piece and front piece meet to form the torso, which is knitted in the round on circular needle. Finally, stitches are picked up in the armholes and in the neck opening to knit the rib edges.

Make a sample before you start to find the needle size that gives you the right tension. Be aware that it is difficult to measure English rib knit as it is elastic – so measure several times.

There is a video with the English rib knitting technique on www.petiteknit.com .

Size guide

September Slipover should have a positive ease of movement of approximately 10 cm. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL correspond to a bust measurement of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) 140-150 cm. The measurements of the finished slipover are given on the front of the pattern. Measure yourself before you start knitting to determine which size fits you best. For example, if you measure 90 cm around the bust (or the widest part of your body), you should knit a size S. A slipover in size S has a bust measurement of 100 cm and will in the example above give a positive ease of movement of 10 cm.
