This is a printed pattern in Swedish.
The Weekend Slipover is knitted from the top down. First, the top of the back is knitted back and forth with shortened rows, so that a slope is formed on the shoulders. Then the shoulder sections are knitted, which are then joined at the front to knit the front piece. The front piece and back are then joined to form the body, which is knitted in the round on circular needles. The ribbed edge at the neck and in the armhole is knitted very last, the latter of which is knitted with decreases at the armhole.
Knit a swatch to find the needle size that gives you the right tension.
Size guide
Weekend Slipover should have a range of motion ( positive ease) of approx. 20-25 cm in relation to your bust measurement. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL correspond to a bust measurement, measured directly on the body, 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 will fit you best. If you e.g. measures 90 cm around the bust (or the widest part of your body), you should knit a size S. A slipover in size S has an upper width of 112 cm and in the above example will give a range of movement ( positive ease ) of 22 cm.
